Om emnet
This project-based studio offers practice oriented design assignments focused on designing architectures that are specific to landscape, climate, terrain and land-use. This implies architectures that are closely embedded into their context. Together we will seek to address locally specific conditions and circumstances, and societal and environmental changes that require architectural designs that go beyond current standard practice.
During the fall semester 2018 we will focus on locally specific spatial, programmatic and environmental criteria. Students will be working individually or in small teams on design projects. The site will be located in Lamole in Chianti, Italy, where we will be going as an excursion.
Læringsutbytte
To develop an understanding of and a response to the increasingly complex design requirements architectural designs have to meet and therefore to be prepared for practice in architecture and the challenges architects need to meet.
The ability to set up and follow through a design process that leads to the desired result;
The ability to utilize design as a method of research in architecture that facilitates the conception of novel architectural designs;
Students will gain detailed knowledge of the architectural and computational design themes pursued by the studio and develop skill in computational design in architecture;
Students will gain the ability to develop designs based on specific performative criteria in an integrated manner from the conceptual stage to the material articulation through computational design;
Knowledge in associative modelling and generative systems;
Knowledge in use of advanced architectural and design visualization;
