After seeing everyone’s presentations for the studio redesign, I realized that I need to go further into my exploration of the studio environment.  There are a lot of variables at play that I forgot about: traffic flow, energy efficiency, collaborative vs. individual spaces, etc.  I want to go back and take a second look at my original brainstorming; I think I can push my ideas a lot further.  I really want to optimize studio as a working environment but also as a place where collaboration and critiques can take place.  Studio takes on a lot of different roles depending on the day of week and also time of day.  It has to be an adaptive environment that changes to fit the changing needs of the students and teachers.
