Course description
New technologies such as "digital design" and "digital fabrication" are beginning to realize advanced architecture in other countries. In Japan, however, it is difficult to say that these technologies have been fully implemented not only in the field of architecture but also in the field of education.
The objective of this course is to master the 3D CAD software Rhinoceros and Grasshopper.
These are used in a wide range of fields, such as architecture and products, to improve the efficiency of the design and production process and to create complex shapes that are unique to computational design.
This class will be divided into two parts: the first half will focus on learning Rhinoceros, and the second half will focus on learning Grasshopper. In the midterm project, students will work in groups to make chairs using the SHOPBOT CNC machine, and in the final project, they will present a 3D model of a pavilion and its partial mockup of the pavilion, allowing students to gain experience more closely resembling practical work in the real world.
Purpose of class
Students will learn the basics of design using digital technology through exercises using the 3D CAD software "Rhinoceros", its plug-in "Grasshopper" and other software. Students will also design furniture and other items that can actually be used using these technologies, and produce them through digital fabrication. Students will deepen their comprehensive understanding of digital design technology through practice from design to production.
