Stay tuned for these upcoming lectures and events at RISD Architecture. More details to follow!

"...students explore surveying, and diagramming. Analog mark making will be used as a tool to inform the digital production of diagrams that refer to the spatial analysis of your own remote workspace..." (excerpt of course description, ARCH1530, taught by David Davila)
