ARCH 613Light, Colour and Darkness

Light, colour and darkness define an essential condition in the experience and the understanding of the environments that we imagine, create, and inhabit. This seminar addresses the empirical nature and the cultural, philosophical and spiritual meanings of light, colour and darkness and explores with the aid of, among other tools, digital simulation, the generation, presence, significance, experience and representation of light, colour and darkness in architecture. Consent of instructor required for those outside of the M.Arch program.
