Course content

The elective course will introduce approaches, concepts and skills related to information-based design. This course includes lectures and seminars focusing on introducing the practice-oriented approach pursued by the RCAT | ACDL group, as well as an intense skill building boot-camp that focuses on associative modelling, local data-collection and analysis.

Learning outcome

Knowledge:
At the end of the course the student will have gained knowledge in a specific practice-oriented approach to information-based design.
Skills:
The student will have gained skills in data-collection and utilization in computational design with specific focus on the Rhino and Grasshopper environment.
General competence:
After successful completion of the course students are expected to have gained good working knowledge in information-based design and the ability to utilize this knowledge in a design project.

Working and learning activities

1. Lectures on selected topics regarding information-based design.
2. Tutorials on an individual and group basis concerning skill-building in data-collection and utilization in computational design.

Note: All instructions are based on active participation by the students and 90 % attendance.
