Comment:

Super parametric and wants you to develop your ability to use 3D software/machines to produce awesome models and drawings, but he'll help you. Wants deeper meaning and an awesome end result. Respects that you're trying.

Comment:

Definitely an interesting professor to take. Perhaps his most likable quality is his interest in helping you push and explore new and unorthodox concepts in architecture. while maintaining a focus on fabrication and making it "real." You will definitely learn plenty about parametric software. He is a little awkward, so watch out for that.

Comment:

Difficult understanding him most of the time. Makes you duplicate other projects/concepts instead of pushing your own ideas. Highly unoriginal class. Sneaks off alot to do things for other classes. Point being...get a professor + an education worth your money

Comment:

Vrana sat in on a couple of my Juries and he had a lot of helpful things to say. He tends to be a bit abstract but trust him and go with it and it will pay off in the long run.

Very abstract, makes the load heavier, too conceptual, interesting projects though, willing to stay and archi babble you for hours
