On your board, please be sure to include the following information in enough clarity and detail (but no more!) that we can all understand your thesis, and intention.
1. THESIS TITLE and BRIEF description of the problems and issues you have identified, as well as your intentions and approaches to studying them.
2. PRECEDENT STUDY including functional/spacial/plastic/other? analysis and indication of how these precedents are relevant to your thesis.
3. PROGRAM INFORMATION in 2 and 3 dimensions, to scale as appropriate. Functional relationship and other diagrams as appropriate.
4. SITE INFORMATION be sure to include sufficient context so that anyone can quickly find where in the world your site is. Show plan, section, and other information such as access, services, historical evolution, and so on. Show site information in as many scales as is needed to communicate your intentions.
5. PLASTIC RESEARCH. Photo and drawing documentation of any and all appropriate 2 and 3D studies of form, transformation, spacial organization, etc. and make clear how they have guided your thesis.
6. ARCHITECTURAL STUDIES that integrate all of the above information into more or less rough proposals into a design for human scaled habitable space.
This board is to be a quick precis and summary of your thesis, not the whole thing. You do not need to show everything on this board, and most likely you won't be able to. Rather than all plans and sections, say, one significant well-developed plan and one well developed section will show the general progress of your work at this time. The rest of those drawings can be presented during your final review jury.
It would be nice if your board is clear and beautiful. I am happy to review your drafts of these boards on your computer during Tuesday's class if you wish.
Thesis Final Reviews on Monday December 17 and Tuesday December 18 will proceed in person and as originally scheduled.
