Architecture 471: Design Integration

Fall 2011

Studio Critic: Hansjörg Göritz

The goal of design integration is to not only design a successful project on the architectural level, but to also design all systems of the building down to the level of the detail.  Only a portion of the semester is spent on architectural design, and the rest is spent integrating HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and structural systems into the project, while exploring the potential of passive systems and the objectives of LEED.
