First-Year Undergraduate Drawing Course Fall 2021: Reviewers’ Selection
December 13, 2021
The first-year undergraduate drawing course — Drawing Out the Architectural Imagination — ended the fall term on December 9 with final reviews and a virtual exhibition.
“The students did amazing work,” said Émélie Desrochers-Turgeon, who taught the course with fellow contract instructors Isabel Potworowski and Marco Ianni.
The reviewers selected the work shown here, based on compelling qualities, for group discussion during the reviews.
The reviewers were:
Interim Director Federica Goffi
Professor Stephen Fai
Associate Professor Johan Voordouw
Associate Professor Lisa Moffitt
Assistant Professor Piper Bernbaum
Contract Instructor Rana Abughannam
Contract Instructor Cailen Pybus
PhD Candidate Kristin Washco
The course is structured as eleven exercises in analog drawing and model-making to teach students about communicating ideas, the material origin of lines, thinking through making, engaging the body and senses, and “drawing-out” the architectural imagination.
The teaching assistants for the class were Damiano Aiello, Jonathan Chung, Kaleigh Jeffrey, Petros Kapetanakis, Cameron Maiolo, and Dana Mastrangelo.
The students prepared a curated panel of their best work of the semester. Those with a Figma account can view it here.
