SURJAN SUPER SCHOOL NEWSLETTER PART 3 WEEK OF NOVEMBER 7, 2025 Theme: THE ARCHITECTURE OF JOYFUL INFRASTRUCTURE 1. INTRODUCTION: CITY AS TOYBOX This week, Surjan Super School imagines the city as a giant construction set of joy .

SURJAN SUPER SCHOOL NEWSLETTER PART 4 WEEK OF OCTOBER 31, 2025 Theme: “ The Architecture of Infinite Yellow: Maps, Modules, and Memory Machines ” I. CITY AS SECTION: THE LONG CUT OF MANHATTAN These images unfold the city not as a plan, but as a sectional landscape of time. Each cut through Manhattan is rendered as an elevation of data —a city transformed into a topographic field, its density spilling upward like tectonic strata. Yellow becomes not background, but atmosphere —

The Rising Canopy This week’s closing chapter turns its gaze upward.

The Language of the Hexagon This week’s Surjan Super School collection traces a lineage of architectural imagination born from the hexagon and its kin — the cube, the triangle, the tetrahedron.
