The elective course will serve the Advanced Computational Design Studio and the Scarcity and Creativity Studio. Organized into two parallel strands the students can choose either the associative modelling session or the digital fabrication component.
Each strand consists of three intense one-week sessions focused on learning and experimentation.

The associative modelling component introduces beginners to associative design and those that already know Grasshopper to a series of generative tools within the software. Beginners will be given a selected architectural design to model, while advanced Grasshopper users will examine the possibility of evolving different types of continuous urban fabric.

The digital fabrication component will introduce different digitally driven fabrication methods. Students will individually research one of these methods and either produce a paper or explore related methods and tools.
