Art of Detailing

This studio targets to join the gap between academics and practical world where we can explore their ideas with different materials and transform them into reality through drawings and 3D explorations.Design detailing relies on developing a thorough understanding and sensitivity to every characteristic of the designed object including: its purpose and function; mechanism of operation; the material; the method of assembly and fabrication; finishes and ornamentation.Detailing is the articulation of the structure and construction.The discussion includes reviews of recent built works that extract underlying principles that can be the basis for new patterns or the alteration and addition to existing patterns.In guiding a design from idea to reality, architects design a set of details that show how structure will be put together. The aesthetics are only a small fraction of good design and that stability and functionality require a deep understanding of how elements come together.Art of Detailing will help bring the elements together with a well fleshed-out design that communicated accurately at all levels of the construction process through identifying the palate of materials to explore and recognize its strength/weakness in the overall built-form; structure and details.
