SOFIA MAKAROVA & HABIBA ELMI
Parkdale Idea Exchange


In this assignment, we were asked to work in pairs, select the ASC520 project of one group member, and take that project from Schematic Design to a more comprehensive Design Development version of itself. Habiba's project was selected and through several iterations, using both analog and digital tools, Sofiya and Habiba developed their conceptual ideas from the previous semester into a comprehensive architecture that addresses site, people, program, envelope, structure, and building code at a higher resolution.



"It is in books, poems, paintings which often give us the confidence to take seriously feelings in ourselves that we might otherwise never have thought to acknowledge." - Alain de Botton
