| summary |
After a discussion of the problematic relationship between architectural history, computer aided design and the design studio, a course is described which provides an overview of the history of urban form through readings and three-dimensional modeling by computer. One objective of the course was to model a hypothetical, archaic Greek city on a hypothetical but realistic site and to transform the model of that city through time to the 20th century. An overview is given of the computer modeling techniques, of the successes and failures of the first offering of the course and of suggestions for improving future offerings of the course. |
