End of Corbelletti Design Charrette

Right from the get-go so far, I've been quickly readjusting to the studio atmosphere. The Corbelletti competition has kept almost all architecture students up until the wee hours of the morning for the past couple nights. All in all, it was a very enjoyable project. Here is my final board:
I wasn't able to get a scan before the deadline, but I did get a photo off.

We got started on our studio project today as well, and the first project of the year is titled: Jewelry Store and Facade Insertion into an Existing Building. There are 12 students in my section this time around, and our professor had us split into four groups with specific tasks for examining and analyzing our site. Every student has the same location and the same project.

Penn State second year

The start of my second year at Penn State started today with a 10:00 Critical Thinking class. Studio is 1:25-5:30 Monday Wednesday Friday this semester, so there will be more in-class time for that. 


The first project of the year will be the Corbelletti Design Competition which is a charrette for all second through fifth year architecture students to start off each year. It is almost entirely hand drawing-based, so it will be interesting to see where the other students' drawing skills are at.
