Tilt Roof House. Jipyeong-myeon, South Korea, 2014

"My goal is the vivid experience and perception of the architectural phenomena itself. What interests me most in my architecture is how the user can participate in it and live within it. In other words, how it will be experienced and how it would change and be perceived with the passage of time."

The event will take place in the 3rd floor lobby and is open to current students, faculty and staff.

Located at 7 East 7th Street, between Third and Fourth Avenues

Founded by inventor, industrialist and philanthropist Peter Cooper in 1859, The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art offers education in art, architecture and engineering, as well as courses in the humanities and social sciences.
“My feelings, my desires, my hopes, embrace humanity throughout the world,” Peter Cooper proclaimed in a speech in 1853. He looked forward to a time when, “knowledge shall cover the earth as waters cover the great deep.”
From its beginnings, Cooper Union was a unique institution, dedicated to founder Peter Cooper's proposition that education is the key not only to personal prosperity but to civic virtue and harmony.
Peter Cooper wanted his graduates to acquire the technical mastery and entrepreneurial skills, enrich their intellects and spark their creativity, and develop a sense of social justice that would translate into action.
