Making Time for an Intermezzo

Abstract

This intermezzo offers a snapshot, a time-lapse view even, of the interactive environment of a studio. This design intermission attempts to borrow something from each project that can be used to create something new- in this case, a team poster. This paper examines that moment, that controlled disruption,  to gain insight into the soul of the design studio. This paper also explores this break in order to highlight the diverse, differential relationship between a studio environment and the students’ senses,  to determine somatically what arouses the students’ design thinking and promotes their design investigations.
