  • Martínez Arias, Andrea; La Roche, Pablo (University of Oregon, 2019)
    The internet not only has changed a vast spectrum of the world’s operations, but also the ways teaching can deal with information and strategies for learning. While this trend has naturally led to the flexibility of time ...
  • Stannard, Sandy (University of Oregon, 2019)
    It is clear that building energy performance plays an essential role in architecture and in architectural practice, not only for reasons of occupant comfort and energy efficiency but also for minimal code compliance. ...
  • Srivastava, Malini (University of Oregon, 2019)
    The Net Positive studio is a 7-week studio in the penultimate year of a professional M. Arch. program at the University of Minnesota. This studio focuses on developing, assessing, documenting, and representing interaction ...
  • Raab, Peter S. (University of Oregon, 2019)
    Within a rapidly changing climate, never have humans seen such rampant degradation of their environment. From water shortages and over-population to massive flooding and storms, we are beginning to test strategies of ...
  • Bean, Jonathan (University of Oregon, 2019)
    How might architectural education change to accommodate the opportunity of designing thermodynamic systems beyond the building scale? This paper provides an overview of a proposal for a district energy system in Tucson, ...
  • McGlohn, Emily M. (University of Oregon, 2019)
    Alabama’s Blackbelt counties suffer from some of the poorest economic conditions in the country. Thirtytwo percent of all people living there, live in poverty. Affordable and climate appropriate housing that contributes ...
  • Koester, Robert J. (University of Oregon, 2019)
    The challenge of design-for-sustainability is to balance the need to educate about design process as an intelligent discipline while using the content of social, economic and environmental factors as the space of design ...
  • Dong, Kevin; Fowler, Thomas (University of Oregon, 2019)
    The Same’ Polytechnic College is a proposed vocational training institution in the United Republic of Tanzania to provide educational opportunities which increase human capital, with the goal of reducing severe levels ...
  • Delpino-Chamy, Montserrat; Rivera, María Isabel; Alarcon, Mabel (University of Oregon, 2019)
    Considering the complexity of ecological and social challenges, universities and the teaching of architecture offer a unique opportunity to create real-life design problems from their local communities, thereby engaging ...
  • Manrique, Carolina; Haglund, Bruce (University of Oregon, 2019)
    Cross-laminated timber (CLT) construction is an emerging technology in the Pacific Northwest (PNW). New CLT mills are being constructed in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. We see this use of wood as a robust alternative ...
  • Rempel, Alexandra R.; Banks, Megan (University of Oregon, 2019)
    Service learning engages students with community partners in creating products for public benefit, allowing students to learn field research and design communication methods while contributing their time and expertise. ...
  • Cruse, Andrew (University of Oregon, 2019)
    As anthropogenic climate change destabilizes a fixed idea of climate, it is also destabilizing a fixed idea of comfort. Comfort, like climate, can no longer be understood as a steady index of energetic balance, but is now ...
  • Sheine, Judith; Donofrio, Mark; Gershfeld, Mikhail (University of Oregon, 2019)
    An integrated design process ideally involves close coordination among the professionals designing architectural, structural, and mechanical systems, and with the construction team and manufacturers of building products; ...
