Exhibition | Regular City: Construction of Ideas Past and Future
This exhibition is founded upon material from the upcoming publication Urban Grids: Handbook for Regular City Design (ORO Editions, 2019), written by Joan Busquets, Dingliang Yang, and Michael Keller. It is the result of an eight-year research project undertaken at the Harvard University Graduate School of Design on regularity in city design, with a particular emphasis on the latent capacities and projective potentials of the urban grid. Research into existing cities and projects is revealing new emerging conditions for the urban grid, presented here as possible paradigms for the city of the future.
A reception and exhibition viewing open to current Cooper Union students, faculty, and staff will take place from 7:30-9pm following Joan Busquets' public
lecture in the Frederick P. Rose Auditorium on Thursday, February 7, 2019.

Exhibition | Drawing Codes: Experimental Protocols of Architectural Representation, Volume II
Curated by Andrew Kudless and Adam Marcus

architects who explore the impact of new technologies on the relationship between code
and drawing: how rules and constraints inform the ways we document, analyze,
represent, and design the built environment.

Saturday and Sunday 12Noon to 7PM
Presented by The Irwin S. Chanin School of Architecture of The Cooper Union and California College of the Arts / Digital Craft Lab.
