Course description
To deliver an effective solution to a given problem, a building designer must utilise a range of analysis and design methods. The purpose of this course is to introduce students to an extended range of powerful computational methods for digital building design, including parametric design, generative design, optimisation, and digital interoperability. The digital workflows developed in this course bridge between design, analysis, performance-driven structural geometry and advanced manufacturing.
