Description
Foundation Studio I begins with a department-wide project and shared learning experience that introduces students to a connected set of ideas and practices as well as different campus resources and Foundation faculty members. After these initial weeks of shared experiences and orientations, each Foundation studio is led by a dedicated faculty mentor for the remainder of the Fall semester. In these studios, faculty mentors are responsible for crafting a narrative arc through a series of interrelated projects that incorporate three primary areas of inquiry that shape the Fall Foundation Studio: Perception + Observation, Visual Forces, and Form + Space. Students are also oriented to the Central Shop in Foundation Studio I.
