Transformation and iteration was the key to succeeding in this assignment. Initially an individual assignment, students created, through several iterations, their proposal for a unit. From which we would then collaberate as a studio to decide the overall shape, materiality, and composition of the unit. The overall goal of the assignment was to create occupiable space through the units.

Analyzing how color and light can affect a given space was the main ob-jective of this study. The goal was to find a pre-existing space where there was a substantial amount of natural light. We then, were in-structed to create a model of that space and study how different colors, when hit by natural light, affected the temperature, emotion and overall ambiance of the space.
