Computational Design in Architecture

The main goal of this design studio is the development of architectural prototypes based on the investigation of material logic and fabrication systems. The students explore different materials and examine them both physically and digitally to understand their material properties and behaviors. The workshops are also designated as a time for students to learn digital tools such as 3D modelling and programming, which helps in developing physical prototypes at the end of the course.
