IARC 399E ST: Exlp Memory Thrgh Dsgn

Design is remembered through experience, both positive and negative; buildings are subject to destructive and devastating experience, as prisons, torture chambers, and concentration camps. Do such deeds transcend time and materials? This course will delve into the psychology of a space and what factors contribute to the identity of these emotionally charged places. Beyond readings, films, and other traditional media this seminar-style class will focus on students' individual hometown lived experiences and how they align or differ from architecture theories and practices.
