First Week of Class


Our first week of Studio is over now, and we have reached a very exciting point already. After all the fussing and fighting was resolved over the amount of Studio space that was available, we were able to actually begin our capstone project under the direction of Dr. Khosrow Bozorgi. Throughout the first week of class, we were focusing on a site along the I-35 corridor, extending south from Indian Hills Road to Robinson Avenue. We were trying to become excited about this project after meeting with a few individuals from Norman's planning department, but it wasn't until Friday when we became very excited about this capstone project. Bozorgi gathered us on campus to view a presentation on our project. The table was turned as he easily persuaded us to focus on our new site. A plot of land that is south of Lindsey and I-35, extending radially from the Canadian River in both directions. This site is very dynamic, and has an abundance of potential for a group of young, ambitious designers such as the ones comprising our studio. Here are just a few pictures to illustrate all of the excitement. More to come later!
