Course Details Language of Instruction English Level of Course Unit Bachelor's Degree Department / Program ARCHITECTURE Type of Program Formal Education Type of Course Unit Elective Course Delivery Method Face To Face Objectives of the Course Understanding parametric design and computational design through different modelling tools such as Rhinoceros3D and Grasshopper3D. Understanding the production processes and the creation methods of architecture and art with digital design and automated production. Applying laser cut, CNC and 3D print technologies. Analyzing different techniques, tools and materials to produce models, mock-ups and prototypes. Course Content Digital Fabrication is a computer-aided production process. The course helps students to explain the direction and advantages of the change in design and production techniques. Software and automation methods are in the focus of this lecture to make students become acquainted with these techniques. In this course, Rhinoceros3D modeling software is explained and Grasshoppper3D -that runs within Rhinoceros3D- visual programming language is used to offer parametric design ideas. The models and algorithms produced using this software are converted into physical models by CNC and laser devices. It is aimed to add 4th dimension to the models with Arduino technology. Course Methods and Techniques Learners will be provided with as much opportunities of hands-on practice as possible with the aim of striking a balance between learner-centeredness and sufficient guidance. Various forms of interaction (i.e. pair work and group work) will also be encouraged to cater for learners with different learning styles. Additionally, individuals will be expected to produce both in-class writings and homework assignments in addition to the reading tasks, which will encourage them to reflect and think critically. Technology will also be incorporated into the classroom procedures in order to create a better learning environment.
