Thesis Seminar & Project Studio
RISD Architecture
Fall 2022 / Spring 23
This course supports thesis students in their research and exploration phase prior to the Spring Thesis Studio. It provides space for the deepening and sharpening of independent, critical thought on urgent questions in architecture.
The course material exists at the intersection of the material (objects, architecture, cities, environments, natural features) and the seemingly immaterial (media, politics, knowledge networks, legal boundaries, economics, infrastructure). While broad in framework, this intersection helps us examine forms and sites through their ‘soft’ relations and values — and to ask what has to change in this picture if we were to imagine a more just, less extractive future.
