Applicants are expected to clearly articulate their research topics in the application by submitting a concise and well-structured research proposal. Thesis topics investigate more specific issues within individual or combined research areas, and do not necessarily correspond to individual academic disciplines. Instead, they are often interdisciplinary in nature, involving faculty and resources from other graduate schools at Harvard and contribute to expanding the intellectual range of design research. The GSD offers a dynamic setting for the exchange of ideas across the fields of architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning, urban design, real estate, design studies, and design engineering—united in the pursuit of a more just, coherent, and beautiful world. Our world faces increasingly complex, often unpredictable dilemmas of consequence to human lives and living environments, including rapid urbanization, climate change, and resource scarcity. The MDE program prepares innovators who operate both creatively and analytically, think strategically, and collaborate broadly.

Research and publications

The Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD) is the graduate school of design at Harvard University, a private research university in Cambridge, Massachusetts. It offers master's and doctoral programs in architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning, urban design, real estate,[1] design engineering, and design studies. Research topics are proposed during admission and are decided upon entry into the program. Student research should align with current faculty research interests, allowing for affiliations with faculty and, possibly, the research labs.

As of 2016, the program's ten-year average ranking places it first, overall, on DesignIntelligence's ranking of programs accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board. Distinct from research in the sciences or humanities, design pedagogy involves highly interactive ways of thinking and learning that directly engage the technical, material, spatial, ecological, political, economic, and planetary dimensions of cultural life. Ultimately, MDes at the GSD challenges conventional ways of learning, and achieves a scope and diversity that are unmatched by any other design school in the world. The Harvard Graduate School of Design does not discriminate against applicants or students on the basis of race, color, national origin, ancestry or any other protected classification. The Graduate School of Design educates leaders in design, research, and scholarship to make a resilient, just, and beautiful world.

We also encourage you to explore the GSD through student work and the pages below to learn more about our degree programs, application requirements, student life, and financial aid. The Master in Design Studies (MDes) post professional program at Harvard’s Graduate School of Design is aimed at those who want to pair their design knowledge with tools to enable careers in public service, academia, NGOs, innovative ventures, as well as developing specific expertise for design practice. The Ecologies Domain investigates relationships among changing environments, varied forms and traditions of human settlement, and the material, infrastructural, and ecological networks required to sustain life.

The DDes program is highly regarded internationally, and DDes alumni have become thought leaders in their respective fields. Their work promotes and advances improvements of the built and the natural environment worldwide. They hold prestigious positions in private practice, industry, government and academia. The design disciplines are critical to engaging the most urgent and complex conditions of our time, and the Master in Design Studies program at the GSD prepares students to rise to the challenge, with training that is at once foundational, multitudinous, and incisive. While priority will be given to students with a design background, MDes is broadly welcoming of students from a wide range of educational backgrounds and life experiences, and deliberate in mobilizing the full intellectual capacity of the GSD in support of MDes students’ ambitions. With more than 50 issues in print, Harvard Design Magazine probes beyond the reaches of the established design disciplines to enrich and challenge current discourse.

This work designs the optical system of SHOT to obtain a large FOV of up to 1.5 deg and match the detector with the size of 60 mm × 60 mm and pixel pitch of 0.8 mm. By adding a corrector lens to the optical system and optimization, the aberrations mainly caused by the optical elements in the detector system are reduced. The influence of each component assigned to different terahertz materials is analyzed. Like many other participants, Jennifer Pieszak, a member of Community Rowing, saw room for improvement in the project. Cole D. Rainey-Slavick, a Somerville resident, said the state’s lack of interest in cutting lanes clashed with their climate goals and professed commitments to reducing car-dependency across Massachusetts. As it stands now, the realignment would bring 12 lanes of traffic across the turnpike and Soldiers Field Road down to ground level.

In 1937, Walter Gropius joined the GSD faculty as chair of the Department of Architecture and brought modern designers, including Marcel Breuer to help revamp the curriculum. These and other problems demand a deep and systems-level understanding of the underlying problem architecture, which in turn enables innovative, multi-faceted solutions that transcend disciplines and scales. The Doctor of Design (D.Des.) program at the Harvard Graduate School of Design is a leading doctoral degree program for professionals who wish to conduct rigorous, intensive design research. The program is geared towards applied research that advances design related knowledge in a broad range of scales from product design to buildings and landscapes to urban design and regional planning. Accredited by the Planning Accreditation Board and open to students with an undergraduate degree, the two-year professional Master in Urban Planning (M.U.P.) degree program engages with critical issues facing cities and regions in coming decades.

Drawing on the strengths of the department, school, and university, GSD planning students learn how to understand, analyze, and influence the variety of forces—social, economic, cultural, legal, political, ecological, and aesthetic, among others—shaping the built environment. The issue features curator Antwaun Sargent in conversation with artists Rick Lowe and Amanda Williams, as well as interviews by the guest editors with fashion designer Casey Cadwallader of Mugler, artist Farah Al Qasimi, and Felix Burrichter, founder and creative director of PIN–UP magazine. An essay by artist Irena Haiduk on the Third Way and Yugoslav fashion designer Aleksandar Joksimović is accompanied by never before published drawings by the designer. Architect Andrew Witt and artist collective Metahaven consider the future of artificial intelligence in design in a pair of essays. The issue concludes with a series of dispatches from curators and editors from around the world, including Edward Enninful, Hans Ulrich Obrist, Sumayya Vally, Carson Chan, Tosin Oshinowo, Jan Boelen, Nora Razian, Aric Chen, Shirley Surya, Fredi Fischli, and Niels Olsen.

The course of study is rigorous and comprehensive, preparing graduates for the full range of professional activities in the field of architecture. The GSD campus is located northeast of Harvard Yard and across the street from Memorial Hall. Gund Hall is the main building of the GSD, and it houses most of the student space and faculty offices.

The America Issue of Harvard Design Magazine, featuring a new design and art direction by Alexis Mark, invites historians, architects, landscape architects, urban designers, theorists, curators, artists, and planners to reflect on the country’s past and present, and to imagine sustainable futures. Projects, taxonomies, dialogues, essays, and spatial interpretations explore possible Americas. They allow us to delve into issues relevant to small cities, towns, and rural areas—as well as major urban centers—and to study barriers and opportunities facing communities across the country. As a post-professional studio-based program, the Master of Architecture in Urban Design (M.A.U.D.) combines intense design instruction, extensive applied research, and knowledge of urban history and theory.

Together with partner Sharon Johnston, Mark served as Co-Artistic Director for the 2017 Chicago Architecture Biennial. Paul Andersen is founder of Independent Architecture, a Denver-based office with projects around the United States. He was appointed a Fulbright Specialist in Architecture, teaches at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and has previously been on the architecture faculties of the Universidad Torcuato Di Tella, the Harvard Graduate School of Design, and Cornell University.

The Graduate School of Design is home to several degree programs, including the world’s oldest landscape architecture program and North America’s longest-standing urban planning program. Keep in mind that you can combine almost any two master’s programs to earn concurrent degrees. The three major design professions (architecture, urban planning, and landscape architecture) were officially united in 1936 to form the Harvard Graduate School of Design. Joseph F. Hudnut (1886–1968) was an American architect scholar and professor who was the first dean.

The program leading to the Master in Architecture II (M.Arch. II) is a post-professional degree intended for individuals who have completed a five-year undergraduate professional program in architecture or its equivalent. The course of study extends the base of knowledge of the professional field through graduate study with particular emphasis on design. Students advance and expand their theoretical and analytical skills and strengthen disciplinary knowledge. DDes research is often multidisciplinary and encompasses a broad range and combination of theoretical, applied and technological topics that represent the cutting edge of applied design investigation.

Still, many advocates pressed the state to reduce the number of lanes on the road to make room for alternative modes of transit — though the state has largely resisted the idea so far. “There’s nothing like a deadline to concentrate the effort,” said Tom Nally, planning director at A Better City, a local business association. Upcycling — the creation of new products by reusing one or more components from ones — is having a moment. Before coming to the GSD, Ed Bayes (MDE ’22) studied law and anthropology and worked in law and public policy in the UK, where he advised the Treasury and the mayor of London on tech, business, and climate policy. Graduates between 2018 and 2021 who joined or launched startups within three years of graduation. UpStyle, a studio project by Wenbo Zhang and Yiqi Yan (both MDE ’24), won an iF Design Award.

Florencia Rodriguez is an architect, and has dedicated her career to writing and editing. In 2014 she received the Loeb Fellowship from the Harvard Graduate School of Design. Under her stewardship, PLOT quickly became one of the leading publications in the region. In early 2017 Florencia embarked on a new project with Pablo Gerson, the editorial platform Lots of architecture -publishers, which main product is the periodical publication –NESS.

Taking advantage of the remarkable international makeup of the faculty and student body, the M.A.U.D. program establishes a common intellectual ground among architects who have a strong interest in engaging the practice and theory of contemporary urbanism. “A terrible mechanism [is] on the march, its gears multiplying.” So begins the 48th issue of Harvard Design Magazine, guest edited by Mark Lee, chair of the department of architecture at the Harvard Graduate School of Design, and Florencia Rodriguez, editorial director of –Ness Magazine. The issue takes as its theme the slippery and ambiguous figure of “America,” seen through the lens of the built and unbuilt environment.

Americanization—once the “terrible mechanism” bent on pressing capitalist values on emerging economies everywhere—is now in retreat, eclipsed by the more urgent domestic concerns of pandemic and climate change, racial injustice and domestic radicalization. Applicants select one of four domains of study—Ecologies, Narratives, Publics, and Mediums—and undertake a core set of courses, including research methods and related topical courses. Following that domain foundation, each student then forges an individualized trajectory, leveraging course offerings across the GSD, as well as other schools and departments at Harvard. During their fourth semester, MDes students from all four domains come together to focus on collaborative advanced research in the form of open projects, in which their expertise finds application on a current issue.

The Space High-cadence Observing Telescope (SHOT) is proposed to conduct a wide-field survey in one of the frequency bands between 1 and 3 THz with an aperture of 0.8 m. It will provide complete terahertz and far-infrared photometry with low-resolution spectroscopy throughout the sky, promoting the study of fast radio bursts, the formation and evolution of stars, and other scientific goals. The telescope will adopt a superconducting kinetic inductance detector to achieve a wide survey of terahertz imaging.

Then in 1981, the then City and Regional Planning Program under John Kain ceased at the Graduate School of Design and was dispersed to the Kennedy School of Government and the Faculty of Arts and Sciences. In 1984, the Department of Urban Planning and Design was formed under Dean Gerald M. McCue with the inclusion of the Urban Design Program. Then in 1994, the Urban Planning program was officially returned to the Graduate School of Design under the aegis of Albert Carnesale, the Dean of the Kennedy School of Government, and Peter G. Rowe, the Dean of the Faculty of Design; with the first class entering in academic year 1994–1995. In 2021, the Department of Urban Planning and Design assumed responsibility for a third graduate degree, the Master in Real Estate[10] (MRE). Students enrolled in the GSD’s professional programs in Landscape Architecture are also encouraged to apply for a concurrent Urban Design degree, for which an individual curriculum may be arranged.

Common to the diverse range of DDes research investigations is the belief that design research makes essential contributions to understanding, analyzing and ultimately improving the built environment in our increasingly complex world. In 1900, the first urban planning courses were taught at Harvard University, and by 1909, urban planning courses taught by James Sturgis Pray were added to Harvard's design curriculum as part of the then School of Landscape Architecture. In 1923, a specialization in urban planning was established under the degree program of Master in Landscape Architecture. In 1929, North America's first urban planning degree (at the graduate level) was established at Harvard under short-term funding from the Rockefeller Foundation.

He has been a guest curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver and the Biennial of the Americas. The MDE program supports a broad set of career goals, ranging from roles in industry, government, and NGO’s, to the academy and startups. Our faculty and students navigate multiple disciplines and fields when setting out to investigate problems, ask better questions, and build novel, real-world solutions.

Other nearby buildings include space for the school's Design Research Labs, faculty offices, the Loeb Fellowship program office, and research space for students, including those in the MDes and DDes programs. The Doctor of Design (DDes) program at the Harvard Graduate School of Design is a leading doctoral degree program for highly creative and motivated professionals who wish to conduct rigorous, intensive design research.

These pets have molds that more closely resemble the style of the TV series and were given names. Hasbro released the Pets Pawsabilities collection during this time, and in 2016, the Pets in the City collection, which more closely resembles the pets released in G2. Due to popular demand and fan outcry over the G3 line, Hasbro brought the bobble-head pets back, which included pets from the 2012 TV show and used the same molds as the pets from the G1 and G2 lines. But it was also short-lived, as the bobble-head style was retired in mid-2014. BlueCollar Working Dog is considered as one of the first brick and mortar retailer focusing on items for dogs which are working, sporting and active ones.

Country House Plan with a Wraparound Porch

If you’ve always wanted a small country house to call your own, this might be the home plan for you. Wooden porch pillars and a single-gabled roof contribute to the country appeal of this design. When you walk through the entrance, you’ll find a very open floor plan which includes a living room, dining area, and kitchen with easy access to the rear patio. Country house plans are those specifically designed to be built out on rural land. They are akin to farmhouses and typically include large front and rear porches and simple rooflines adorned with gables and/or dormers.

The kitchen comes with a large island for extra storage, and offers easy access to the dining area. There is space for two bedrooms, or one bedroom and a flex room/den/office in one wing of the layout (explore these home office ideas from Real Simple). This farmhouse style home plan was designed to give you lots of ways to incorporate more indoor/outdoor time (much like these outdoor rooms from HGTV).

These homes may have multiple levels, with bedrooms and living spaces situated on different floors, creating a sense of privacy and separation between an lower or upper level master bedroom and other bedrooms. These porches are often used as outdoor living spaces, where families can gather to relax and enjoy the fresh air. Many country homes also feature outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, and other amenities that make these spaces even more inviting. In addition to the many classic and historical designs, California also includes many contemporary homes. These houses can vary noticeably in appearance, though many focus on simple exteriors incorporating a wide range of building materials. Available in both one-story and two-story layouts, these homes bring modern design elements into play by increasing the flow between rooms and incorporating numerous windows.

Multi-pane windows and ornate shutters add further charm to the exterior and contribute to the true Americana coziness country style home designs offer. At Direct From The Designers, we've brought together the most popular country home plans from leading architects and designers throughout the US and Canada to help you find the perfect country home plan. Country house plans reflect the best of rural living, with broad sweeping floor plans and expansive verandas that embrace their setting.

Small country house plans are known for their incorporation of outdoor space, such as wraparound porches and wide verandas. If you love the country style--and want to add a little outdoor time to your everyday living-- but are looking for a house plan that’s smaller and stylish, we have some options for you. Many country style house plans also incorporate large, open living spaces, which create a sense of community and togetherness for families and guests.

If you're not interested in country house plans with wrap-around porches, there is usually at least some covered front porch and/or rear covered or screened porch as well. These exterior elements make country house plans easily recognizable, as do the use of overhead window dormers, gabled rooflines, and abundant window views. Adding some outdoor living space promotes casual living by highlighting the indoor/outdoor living space as a seamless design element that provides a welcoming place for all to gather. The appeal and comfort of a Country house plan makes this a natural choice for relaxing year-round living.

As you walk in through the spacious front porch you’ll be greeted by an open great room (with vaulted ceiling) and a generous kitchen and eating area. The other wing contains a master suite complete with a modern bathroom that boasts a walk-in shower and two sinks. Unlike these architectural styles, country houses were simple structures often with symmetrical lines, a central door and evenly spaced windows. Many country floor plans featured wide front porches that were sometimes decorated with Victorian style spindle work and brackets or Colonial style shutters and dormers.

Small Country Farmhouse with Front and Rear Porches

The other wing of the house has two secondary bedrooms that are split by a full bathroom for privacy. As the country grew and became more prosperous, country homes became more ornate and elegant. By the late 19th century, wealthy families were building grand country estates that were designed to showcase their wealth and status. Kit homes, such as those offered by various manufacturers like Sears, Aladdin, Gordon Van Tine, and dozens more, were designed for affordability. The materials were often top-notch, and nearly 100 years later many of these small, old houses are eagerly sought after. The second floor boasts a very private master suite (with a generous walk-in closet space and a luxurious bathroom).

What to Look for in Country Home Designs

Our country house plans include all the charming details you'd expect with inviting front and wrap-around porches, dormer windows, quaint shutters and gabled rooflines. Once mostly popular in the South, country style homes are now built all over the country. The modernized country home plan is more energy efficient, has an open living area, kitchen island eating bar, breakfast nook, split bedroom design and often a well-organized mudroom. A nostalgic, furnished front porch with millwork detail is the hallmark for this style home making it warm and inviting.

The history of country homes dates back to the early days of the United States, when settlers were building homes in rural areas. These homes were often constructed using local materials such as wood and stone, and were designed to be simple and practical. While combining modern and country design aesthetics might seem contradictory, the two can work together well. The modern master suite includes a vaulted ceiling over the bedroom, a walk-in closet, and a bathroom with a soaking tub and glass shower.

Regardless of origin, these plans provided fodder for the dream of home ownership to hundreds of thousands of Americans. In the succeeding decades, as fashions have come and gone, many of these houses continue to charm us.

Built for a comfortable and family-friendly lifestyle, country house plans feature layouts that are highlighted with plenty of space to enjoy gathering with family and friends, even in a single-story layout. One-story plans can be sprawling and often incorporate large, well-laid-out rooms which are well-suited to a casual way of life in the home's interior. This stylish country home plan offers a substantial amount of space for its size.

This may include front porches or rear porches decorated with simple wooden columns or railings, adding to the home's sense of simplicity and functionality. Unlike many other styles of architecture, country homes are often designed with a focus on functionality and practicality. This means that they are typically smaller and more efficient than other types of homes, while still offering plenty of space for families to live and grow. One of the most notable features of country homes is their use of natural materials. These homes are often constructed with wood, stone, and other materials that blend in with the natural surroundings.

This small country house plan has a welcoming front porch that invites you to spend some time relaxing outdoors. As you pass through the entryway, you’ll be greeted by the spacious living room that provides plenty of space for a dining table and chairs. The conveniently located kitchen makes it easy to prepare meals inside and enjoy them outside on the rear porch. The first floor contains two rooms--one a spacious bedroom with a walk-in closet, and the other ideal for a den/office/or study room.

Tools for finding a sunny site and building a solar-efficient home

These homes are smaller in size and carry over many of the aesthetics of Craftsman homes, only on a more stripped-down scale. These houses often feature offset porches, simple front lawns, and a single story that spreads out the rooms to maximize space. The rear covered porch is ideal for enjoying time outside with family and friends, and the two-car carport can accommodate vehicles or provide additional storage space.

The large garage is ideal for convenient vehicle storage or for extra work space. The open layout of the great room and the kitchen (with a walk-in pantry) creates a generous sense of space, and leads you directly to the substantial rear porch. Country homes also often feature large, covered wraparound porches, which provide a welcoming entrance to the home and a space to enjoy the outdoors.

The living room features a cathedral ceiling, creating a sense of even more open space. The kitchen is located just behind the living area and has a helpful island bar and easy access to the dining room. The rear covered porch is ideal for outdoor grilling and entertaining with friends and family. This appealing small country home plan is perfect if you’re looking to add a little charm to your home design. As you pass through the foyer you’ll enter into the great room (that includes a vaulted ceiling) and features rustic wooden beams for additional country appeal.

Whether it's a primary residence in a suburban environment or a vacation home hidden in the rural countryside, country style houses are the architectural embodiment of the American Dream. Any homeowner can appreciate the traditional wraparound porch, Palladian window, and dormers--all which make the exterior distinctive and visually interesting. Once you’re on the inside, you’ll find a spacious great room--complete with a fireplace, cathedral ceiling, and clerestory windows-- that flows effortlessly to the back deck. The kitchen is conveniently located in between the dining room and breakfast area (that includes a view of the rear deck), and boasts a pass-through for easy food service into the great room. Open layouts give you the chance to really increase that feeling of extra space, and with a smaller country house plan, they work exceedingly well! When you come through the entry, you’ll find yourself in the midst of a large and welcoming great room.
