Student Work, Paper

The journal, 102 pages in total, starts with “Notes from the Editor” in which Neis describes the scope and essentials of this course on process and furniture. It then presents the twenty six papers on the pieces of furniture the students had designed and built within a period of four weeks, focusing on the essential process aspects they had followed for making them. The pieces of furniture included, were built by students who attended the Building Process Area of Emphasis in the Architecture Department, from 1990 to 1994, with Christopher Alexander and Hansjoachim Neis as core faculty. There is a list of the furniture projects, and each one of them is presented with a photo, and a description of the process, accompanied with sketches in several cases. The pieces of furniture were exhibited in Wurster Hall from May 3, 1995 to May 17, 1995.
