It challenged students to translate cultural ideas into tectonic and spatial strategies for a monument, museum, and memorial that serves as a gateway to the Gullah-Geechee corridor, incorporating public interpretive and historical programs.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn Florencia Pita and Jackilin Bloom's studio, \"Easy Office,\" students experimented with ways of generating new spatial, formal, material, and narrative ideas through the processes of collecting, collaging, and casting everyday objects. The studio considered notions of the creative office and the workplace based on the unexpected space, form, and materiality that emerged from these processes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eStudents in Omar Gandhi's studio, \"Where the Wild Things Are\" designed a campus of creatures for Rabbit Snare Gorge on the north coast of Cape Breton Island. They focused on a series of interventions that used vernacular approaches to produce specific functions, develop a process or ideology, and frame sensory experience. The students explored how Nova Scotia's regional architecture takes advantage of phenomenological opportunities available on the site and inspires new responses to climate and geography.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Florencia Pita, Jackilin Bloom, Omar Gandhi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1948765470\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781948765473\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale School of Architecture\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/05\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.10h x 7.20w x 0.60d","brand":"Florencia Pita","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43941000118527,"sku":"9781948765473","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_b4409971-20f4-400c-abfd-d10466ed90ec.jpg?v=1681450344","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/within-or-without-florencia-pita-9781948765473","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
