Allen, “Practice vs. Project”
-What is “techne” and how is it
related to the reading? (XI)
-Allen says, “The practice of
architecture tends to be messy and inconsistent precisely because it
has to negotiate a reality that is itself messy and inconsistent.”
Do you think reality will always be messy and inconsistent? (XI)
-Why do you think architecture cannot
“approach the transparency and speed of other medias?” (XIV)
-Allen states, “The activity of
writing for me is part of the practice of architecture.” When do
you find writing useful in the practice of architecture? (XX)
Salomon, “Experimental Cultures”
-Salomon states, “to design – you
must first research the context it operates in and on.” What are
some ways you have researched context and how did you use it in your
design? (36)
-“The move away from individual
thesis toward theacher-led, group research projects represents a
diminished role for intuition in the design process.” What is
Salomon's counter-argument? (42)
-What would you want in your concluding
architectural course?
