| Course Objectives: | The course is recommended for graduate students of interior design and architectural design. It comprises the theoretical discussion of computer systems and information technology and explores the ways in which new technologies are reshaping interiors, architectural forms and practices. Objectives: 1.To discuss contemporary approaches to digital architecture through relevant theoretical positions and paradigms; 2. To enable critical debate on the current state of the art of design tools, media, objects and designer behaviors; 3. To enable projections towards multiple futures of the design profession and consecutive relations among design, designer, designed object, cyberspace and digital media. |
|
The students who have succeeded in this course; gain knowledge, ability and proficiency in the following subjects: 1. To be able to critical thinking; 2. To understand the interdisciplinary interaction related with the field and to achieve the original conclusions through new and complex ideas; 3. To be able to execute critical analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of new and complex ideas; 4. To be able to contribute the solutions of national, scientific and cultural problems related with the field, and to support their advance; 5. To be able to develop strategies for future projections. |
| Computer-aided design (CAAD) technology has radically changed the practice of architecture, and yet it has the potential to change it even more radically. This course offers a comprehensive study of the principles, methods, practices and the potential of emerging computational techniques that will affect the future of architectural design. Computer aided design: Systematic approaches in theoretical context and discourse, concept/product/ process/discourse/representation. Concepts of virtuality, cyberspace, interaction, symbiosis etc. Future manifestoes: utopias/distopias, Characteristics of the electronic media as a mean of communication, production and presentation, Projections on the futures of electronic media and information technologies; Impacts of cyberculture on the physical world. |
