could be merged; ultimately, it enabled me to see the immense potential of both tectonics and allowed me to indicate the strongest and most successful attributes and deliver them verbally and physically (via prototyping) through the interim presentations. The proposals allowed us not only to explain our brief, but also the progress in which we derived to decisions.
design at the beginning of the course, constant assistance with technical help (especially with technical sessions) further broadened the scope of development by introducing new component and more advanced means of manipulating such components. I am beginning to be able implement a programmatic mode of thinking into my design process.
OBJECTIVE 6 CAPABILITIES OF CONCEPTUAL, TECHNICAL AND DESIGN ANALYSIS OF CONTEMPORARY ARCHITECTUAL PROJECTS
OBJECTIVE 8 DEVELOP PERSONALIZED REPERTOIRE OF COMPUTATIONAL TECHNIQUES SUBSTANTIATED BY THE UNDERSTANDING OF ADVANTAGES, DISADVANTAGES AND AREAS OF APPLICATION
Not only was I exposed to various precedent projects by reverse engineering my design, collaborating with my assigned partner also exposed me to more existing parametric structures. It was very inspiring to see how simple definitions could achieve such complex and aesthetically rich effects that large manipulate the experiential aspects of architecture. OBJECTIVE 7 DEVELOP UNDERSTANDING OF COMPUTATIONAL GEOMETRY, DATA STRUCTURES AND TYPES OF PROGRAMMING Introduction of parametric design and computation through weekly videos and tutorials enabled me to see the potentials of digital design, especially for repetitive elements such as patternation or modular formations. Although I was new to the realm of computational
Initially by analysing the precedent project itself (whether it was successful or not) and iterating the definition into a form that suited my personal design brief (of an interactive filtration system), I was not only able to implement new geometries and components (such as attractor points) to match the desired outcome, but also allowed me to foresee the limitations and opportunities of parametric design itself. Although computational design allows for performative generative design and optimize material performance, it is restricted into the programmatic language and restricted by fabricating means (such as doubly curved surfaces).
