Scholarship For AA_Aarhus Visiting School
In 2015 the Aarhus School of Architecture hosted a 10 day workshop in collaboration with the Architectural Association. This was part of an initiative between the two schools to investigate the implications of computational tools in design and fabrication under different scales of architecture. The workshops focused on novel computational software coupled with fabrication techniques that investigated designs particular to the ecology of Denmark.
As a part of the workshop, the participants were introduced to the basics of parametric modelling, digital fabrication and material behaviour. Aarhus has a large array of different digital fabrication tools, where the participants mainly used laser cutting and digital cutting, however for 2016 we will expand on the applied fabrication techniques. Students worked as groups to investigate surface morphologies and more specifically how surfaces can be used to modulate light through pattern manipulations. The groups further explored the relationship between surfaces as 2D elements and how these can be manipulated into spatial elements through folding, bending or morphing among others. For this year we will run two units within the theme of last year: Affects of Light through Pattern and Geometry manipulations. The first unit titled ?Mesh Morphologies? will focus on teaching students how to control and manipulate local regions of complex geometries as a response to external factors through constant feedback between physical and digital ...
