This project-based studio course introduces undergraduate students to the design of ephemeral constructions such as for markets or shelters. Through processes and methods of research, design, and iterative development through modeling, students will learn functional knowledge addressing installation procedures, project planning and management, as well as considering concepts of scale, structure, assembly, disassembly and space making for exterior site specific projects. Project topics range from the interim conditions for disaster relief to the short-term constructions assembled for temporary markets. Students will explore new opportunities to respond to large-scale projects quickly, build constructions more sustainably and efficiently, and create a sense of place within a temporary environment.
