Digital Design Studio: Pioneering Tomorrow's Spaces
The DDU design studio will operate at the nexus of design, digital technologies, and their impact on architectural futures. During the studio, participants will develop individual architectural design proposals for a public building. The assignment is to speculate on plausible near-future architecture scenarios as well as to detail and visualize them. The scenarios will revolve around a potential paradigm shift in construction, providing speculative answers to the question:
What if architectural permanence is shifted from buildings towards its building elements in constant, circular transformation?
Responding to changing societal needs of public buildings, students are asked to incorporate a continuous process of assembly, disassembly and reassembly into their designs: What if the means to assemble a building become part of the building itself rather than being construction site equipment? What if users are able to interact with structures and construction elements to transform a given space?
The studio will kick-off with a workshop phase in which students will dive into one of three technology topics, exploring either Robotics, Mixed Reality or Circular Economy in small groups. Each of these groups will be guided and supported by experienced DDU team members. Students will then enhance their individual design proposals based on the learned technology skills, incorporating one or more of these technologies into their work.
