Design Build and Design and Construction for Community Projects

Second and Third Year Students:
On Monday April 4th, there will be a showing of the Design Experimentation work: brief ribbon-cutting for room 705 at 1pm and video screenings at 4:30 or 5pm (room to be announced).

For Design Build and Design and Construction of Community Projects in Thailand:
April 4th - Program & Schedule Distribution (via email and hardcopy announcements)
April 8th - Presentation + Lottery after Arch Design I & Architecture and Urbanism 5 pm (TBD)

This semester, INDA will offer multiple Design Build and Design and Construction for Communities projects for you to choose from. Once the project briefs are distributed on or around April 4th, please spend some time reading through the documents and start thinking about which project that you would like to participate in. Each instructor will give a presentation about his/her project on Friday, April 8th, 2011 and instructors will be available to answer questions that you may have. Students who have been selected and paid their deposits for the Berlin or India program are welcome to attend but do not participate in the lottery process.

After the presentations on April 8th, we will pass around the ballots in which you will list your four most preferred projects. Then we will collect back the ballots and sort out the final lists for each group. For those who do not show up on Friday to sign in and submit the ballots yourself, you will be randomly assigned to projects which have openings. Please show up if you want to work on the project of your preference. The result will be announced on April 12th, 2011. Once announced, you may hear from your instructors regarding the first meeting place and time.

Y3 Class Friday and Uniform Policy

Y3 Students:
All third year INDA courses will resume regularly scheduled class time as of Thursday March 31st.  While some groups might still be finishing up work associated with design experimentation workshop after hours or over the weekend, all students (except AA Paris Workshop) are expected to attend Environmental Technology and Architecture and Urbanism class on Friday.

Also please wear your uniform to classes for the remainder of the semester, no jeans or flip-flops and shirts tucked in. I have received the following notice from Aj. Preechaya, and instructors will be collecting IDs for students not following the dress code policy.

Though the school atmosphere and mood now is summer, it is regular school time for INDA. Therefore, during school weekday official hours, students should wear uniform, particularly during contact time with instructors at school. Uniform is about discipline, respect and being professional, and should not be compromised. I request a strict enforcement on students wearing uniform during weekday school office hours, disregarding whether they have class or not.
