Course description

Computer use in architecture and other design professions have become common in two categories; the primary by using computers as an instrument that enables  to explore and present complex morphologies  And the second one employs the inherent logic of the medium to develop design methods.

The course will focus on parametric and algorithmic architectural design tools, students will be familiar variety of associative and generative design methodologies.

The course is composed of a few exercises that will illustrate notions of digital media design such as automation, data manipulation and complex input methods, generative algorithmic logic student will acquire valuable skills in digital design.

 

Students will research and develop in 'Grasshopper' a plugin for Rhino 3D modeling software. Grasshopper is a visual programming interface widely used in architecture, engineering and design

Students will submit personal home assignment following subjects covered in the lesson, and a final project in groups of 3 students of an object (model) 50X50X50 cm minimum size.
