The Architecture Program at USD is embedded in the liberal arts education that constitutes the core of the College of Arts and Sciences. As such, all courses in the Architecture Program, be they studios, lectures, or seminars, teach our undergraduate students the skills of critical thinking and argumentative reasoning based on evidence, and encourage curiosity and free inquiry.

Repost @farrahkarapetian: How many fellows can you pack in the Casa de la Paz at USD? My CECArtslink fellow from Russia on the right and the International Peacemaker from South Sudan, photographing a student of mine, who grew up in China, with the Peacemaker she worked with, a Native American woman, In front of the piece they made together as the pairs happily show the fruits of their labor together tonight. Quick good work from all involved! Proud of you! (Second picture goofy outtake also including all the students and the Peacemakers from Israel and Pakistan.) Many thanks to the Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice and the Department of Art, Architecture + Art History for being so game. #daaahisgood #daaahsgoood
Congratulations to Professor Daniel López-Pérez on his new book! Pattern-Thinking documents Buckminster Fuller’s process of translation, in between lines, models, words and patents, as a foil from which to rethink contemporary models of design-research, practice and pedagogy. DAA+AH Architecture Alum! Did you build a sphere in studio? You’ll likely find your contribution to this research within these pages. #patternthinking #buckminsterfuller #larsmullerpublishers #usd_daaah #usdcas #princetonarchitecture #barrferreefoundation #architecturebooks #geodesic #daaahsgoood
