This course provides an opportunity to delve deeper into various design toolsets as part of an iterative process aimed at the production of a concentrated spatial fragment. Through a series of incremental exercises, ideas will be conceived, tested, and evaluated, providing the groundwork for a refined tectonic. Digital and analog techniques will be introduced and implemented as a means of increasing design fluency, both on a technical and qualitative level. The nature of each experience will be established through calibrated compositions and atmospheric vignettes that demand viewer engagement.
Students are introduced to parametric logic, using grasshopper to produce a generative diagram of overlapping figures. Students select one composite, and develop a space through analog and digital means, and represent the results as a refined set of orthographic drawings.
