Supplies List

You are responsible for the acquisition of materials for the course. If you have questions about any of the supplies, please e-mail Beth Tauke at [email protected] prior to the start of studio.

Recommended Software While the University does not require students to have their own computers, the School of Architecture and Planning highly recommends it. Similarly, though we do not require that you purchase specific software programs, Adobe Creative Suite will be used in your first year studio courses, as well as subsequent courses. Our computing labs currently have Adobe Creative Suite Design Standard 6 installed. For students who would like to purchase Creative Suite, Adobe has moved to a cloud based model. You can purchase Adobe Creative Cloud at a discounted student rate. There is a monthly or yearly fee and all products are included. Pricing and details can be found here: http://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/buy/students.html?promoid=N7FDRVG6&mv=other#x Autodesk also offers a variety of products such as AutoCAD, 3ds Max and Revit for students free of charge.

Optional (but highly useful) Materials Dremel ($86) Picket 1264-I Isometric Ellipse Template ($14) X-Acto X75320 Small Set with ($22)

Additional Materials In addition to the basic set of required materials, you will need to purchase materials for the construction of each project assigned throughout the semester. This material should be purchased as needed rather than at the beginning of the semester. Given that each of you will take a unique approach to the projects, it is difficult to predict exactly what you’ll need. However, typical materials include: papers such as drafting Mylar or vellum, watercolor paper, charcoal paper, etc. (approximately $200.00 for the semester); and model materials such as basswood, chip board, dowels, wire, plaster, etc. (approximately $300.00 for the semester).

All tools should be permanently labeled with your name.

NOTE: If you resign from the studio course, you have 24 hours from your drop date to retrieve your supplies. After that time, supplies will be added to the general studio supply box and will be distributed to students who have need for them.
