EDAD346 Animals, Arch. & Attitude II 3cr

This continuation of a community service design
course, is intended to be a chance to construct
large scale ( 1:2 scale ) working prototypes and
models based on designs produced in the first
course that was offered in the Fall of 2018. In
this course students will construct mock ups of
operational stage props, a transformable stage
with backstage, and a dynamically shaped
lightweight roof structure. These large scale
furniture-like objects will then be displayed a
the Franklin Park Zoo, to demonstrate to design
intent and help the Zoo raise funds to build the
actual project in 2019.

This course is presented to students with an
emphasis on developing skills in material
research, analysis, and detail design and
fabrictaion.The final result is the creation of a
useful tranformable space and structure where
humans and animals interface and learn from each
other with a covered stage for presentations,
educational programming, concerts, and
performances located at the Franklin Park Zoo.
