Last fall, Dr. Khosrow Bozorgi taught the Architecture studio ARCH 4956, which focused on exploration, analysis and experimentation in the development of schematic proposals. In this studio, students developed an architectural program, conducted feasibility studies for their project and developed refined architectural solutions.
For the project, students designed cultural centers for the Ganjali Khan Baazar Complex in Kerman, a remote city in Iran. They were challenged with introducing a new design concept that could be easily integrated into the rich architectural traditions of the city. The purpose of this project was to design a space within a real urban setting that could host a mixture of events, exhibitions and workshops for a variety of creative endeavors.
The students came up with innovative design solutions that would encourage visitors to experience the creative expression of culture, science and technology. Learn more about the student’s design proposals here, and their project development process here.
