DREAM REAL

VISUALIZE IT.

Jiahao (Fred) Ge, a visualizer, travels through the galaxy of mind to dedicate himself in creating works with no boundaries. While currently studying in B.arch program in SCI-Arc, he is building up architectural thinking within his gift in perception of space. Ge is enthusiastic to push hisself to create something beyond, something contrasts to what people know. He like to spend hours in studio and enjoy brainstorming in the world he creates.

In Ge’s mind, Diving into the architecture world is to find “fruits of confrontation”. Along with curiosity, Ge challenges ideas through different forms and materials, in which his projects focus not only on the aesthetic presentation of work – Such as renders and animations – but also on the thesis within drawing sets. While working in studio, Ge’s mind is freeing despite the body is in an enclosure. Ge always find his passion in solving problem in digital way. Ge does not follow routine to build-up his idea – He loves experimenting with different medias and define objects through his discovery. In SCI-Arc life, Ge is awarded for continuous scholarship. He was Teaching Assistance in his third year for second year studio. Outside of campus life, He interlink music into visualization of space and attend workshops often.

FRUITS OF CONFRONTATION

4A is meant to prepare students for their thesis before they enter vertical studios, by exposing students to a range of positions and discussions surrounding a set of architectural issues.

The objective of the Position Studio is to design an expansion for SCI-Arc that adds 50% more floor space to the existing structure, equating to approximately 4,200 square meters (or 45,000 square feet). This extension should be situated within a designated area surrounding the current building.

JOIN ERY

Students will design a mixed use complex including a community athletic facility as well as restaurants and commercial spaces. This complex will extend the planned masterplan, Miami Freedom Park. Students will design an overall project at the schematic design level. A more detailed section of the project will be carried to tectonic resolution, particularly in terms of the envelope.

DONUT HOUSING

The studio examines how architecture can mediate the relationships across three disciplinary topics: typology, Precedent, and Scale. Tasked with developing integrated proposals for a moderately sized housing complex composed of micro units, students are encouraged to design into existing urban conditions with an understanding of the dynamic and interdependent forces of economies, access, privacy, shared space, and infrastructure that shapes these projects and their presence in the city. Case Studies will be examined through research in order to foster knowledge about how such projects are logistically resolved and integrated into their urban settings with an eye towards their potential for new forms of collectives.

MEET ME

2B studio extends student’s spatial investigations from the site to the world beyond and look at ecology as a context. The studio will explore a range of methods to engage with environmental and ecological issues in developing a complex building program at a dense urban site. By negotiating with the environmental conditions and energy usage, the studio will look at the building as the interface that mediates between the programmatic spaces it houses and the ecology it inhabits, forging a site-specific relationship between them.
