40 305 Information-based Design
Prerequisites: Completed Bachelor studies, Basic Knowledge in Rhino.
Recommended: Working skills in computational modelling and visualization.
[The course is only available for students in the Embedded Architectures and New Environments Studio courses of the RCAT | ACDL group.]
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 in conjunction with leading practices [Snøhetta, Kieran Timberlake], as well as an intense skill building boot-camp that focuses on data-collection and utilization in computational design.
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.
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.
Delivery: Portfolio of work process including visualization of collected data and utilization of the data in the design of the studio project.
