Borrowing language from roller coasters, the “Architectural Fun Ride” is a block-long, program-less building made up of interlocking segments that are connected by a continuous interior path.

Each student was responsible for his/her segment with a goal of ensuring that users would remain motivated to walk through the entire structure.

Issues of formal and functional adjacency were negotiated between “neighbors."

This is a 3 week warm up exercise to prepare students for the main studio project.

Students:
