Om emnet

The elective course ‘Modulating Microclimates’ is configured to provide knowledge and skills for the studio course ‘Architecture and Productive Landscapes’. The focus is on learning concepts and skills related to environmental data collection and data-driven computational design.

Students will develop further their knowledge in Rhino modeling and acquire related skills in data-driven associative modeling (Grasshopper; see: http://www.grasshopper3d.com/) and in multi-objective optimization (see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-objective_optimization; and Octopus; see: http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/octopus/page/octopus-examples).

Students will also learn how to collect environmental data through purpose-configured measure-stations (Arduino; see: https://www.arduino.cc/) and how to feed the collected data into the Rhino environment for modeling purposes.

The elective course will be delivered in three one-week sessions prior to the field trip of the studio course.
