Paper ID #97213D Design: Form and LightMs. Mary Ann Frank, Indiana University Purdue University, Indianapolis Senior Lecturer, Interior DesignBeth Huffman, Indiana University Purdue University, Indianapolis Beth Huffman is a lecturer at Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) in the interior design department. She is a licensed architect with specialties in sustainability and construction. Beth’s classroom pedagogy is focused on the practices of design/ build. She often encourages students to build a portion of their projects at full scale, in order to understand construction connections and

careers as projectleaders they will better understand structural engineering systems and principles. The newARCE 315 has been developed over the last year in consultation with the ARCH and CMdepartments. The challenge has been to select the appropriate mix of content from the twooriginal courses to include in the new ARCE 315. This course was taught for the first time in FallQuarter 2013; its organization and content are being adjusted based on lessons learned.This work in progress paper will present the background of the original five course sequence andthe recent changes, the learning outcomes and content developed for the new ARCE 315, the twostudent projects through which the course contents were applied, and the lessons learned in

meld with constructability, selection and sizing of materials, reducing material waste,efficient space design, and clearly illustrating the resulting design in a set of constructiondrawings. To achieve these course goals in a semester, the project size is kept small, allowing usto focus on quality instead of quantity.Initial offerings of the course resulted is several issues that needed to be addressed. Whilestudents are most often very excited about the first phase of the course, ‘designing’ a home,keeping the individual projects small in size and scope became quite difficult. Students wereintrensically motivated to design their ‘dream home’, intent on solving all the preceivedproblems of their childhood home(s). While student enthusiasm and

reach, the disciplines face new challenges. In Rwanda, onwhich this paper will focus, 40% of the federal budget comes from international aid anddevelopment projects depend on the state of foreign affairs. Under such precarity, designdisciplines often struggle to integrate local participants as primary project drivers. Design andconstruction knowledge, experience and jobs could leave with the foreigners who brought them.In these global projects, the West receives praise in case of success while risks befall on thelocals in case of failure. “Home” in this context is found in the West where designers manageprojects in the distant field of developing countries. The unique overlap between the home andthe field of design disciplines are undermined by

to excite these students about structures and integrate structure into their owndisciplines in a meaningful way. This paper reports on one means of accomplishing thisin ARCE 316 using K’nex toys to illustrate the entire design - construction sequence andrelate how structure fits into the process during this final large scale structures course.The project was made possible by a generous $10,000 donation of 48,400 K’nex piecesfrom the K’nex Corporation.Project DescriptionIn addition to the lectures, homework and examinations required to attain the ARCE 316course objectives, a course project was developed to illustrate the entiredesign/construction process. For the ten-week 2013 winter quarter, the course projectrequirements were to design and

that alllighting calculation tools use two metrics to quantify light: illuminance, the amount of luminousflux per unit area, measured in lux or footcandles; and luminance, the intensity of light reflectedfrom a surface, measured in candelas 10. Most projects that are determining lighting needs useilluminance as a measurement, as it provides the amount of light that reaches a horizontal workplane. Measuring the amount of light from an electric or artificial source can often bestraightforward, as lighting calculation tools often quantify light at a specific given time.However, daylight provides many more challenges, as the quality and quantity of light canchange based upon the time of day, season, location, and weather.
