Distant Unicorn


This is an old building.




This is a very old building.




These are bricks.




This is a sidewalk.




This is a structure.




This is bad.




This is good.




This is really, really bad.




This is really good.




This is modernism.




This is deconstuctionism.




This is post-modernism.




This is Robert Stern.




This is FAT.



This is Steven Holl.




This is Zaha.

Fantastic. When can I pick up my diploma? And I'm surprised by your 'this is good,' as you never responded...

Or perhaps I didn't? I get too many darn emails... Also, there's a firewall issue...

I do have one question, however, what's really, really good?

This post needs more maya, rhino, parameticism, digital-fab, and "design to production" work to meet the ivy league requirements.

A really shallow, cursory look at structuralist philosophy would be nice too.

Oh and weak looking Beuys and Duchamp knockoffs mixed with a twisted Jules Verne / distopic victorian steampunk aesthetic would earn you a Barttlett or AA Diploma.

If you want to know the answer to that question, you need to take the 11-week supplemental pre-M.Arch summer program:

Developing taste in Architecture(TM): an immersive studio in teaching the fundamentals of sneering, snickering, huffing, jeering and associative passive-aggressive body language.
The structure of the course is to find hopeful-but-talentless architectural studios, invite them to do a presentation and then practice our passive-aggressive communication combos until they weep (up, down, up down, left, right, left, right, A, B, A, B, select, start is not permitted.)

The course is $11,000, does not count towards your M.Arch nor does it guarantee admittance. It is also BYOB and there's no gaurantee of your personal safety.
