The brutal and stoic piers of Rudolph Hall belie the mayhem contained within. Even a single year within Rudolph’s grasp is a hazard, and three years can be nearly fatal. This drawing endeavors to map out the most common pitfalls: from review anxiety to carpet burn, from resin fumes to broken dreams.
Through the convention of a cut-away axon, this drawing shows all of the activities of Rudolph Hall simultaneously. This format emphasizes the many overlapping stimulations, passions, and ambitions of the occupants. The parallel projection emphasizes each narrative evenly, allowing the viewer’s attention to slide from one hazard to the next, inviting the viewer to piece together a feeling of the holistic chaos of a year at the Yale School of Architecture.
