Description
The most urgent task design professionals face is reimagining the construction and operation of our built environment to respect planetary boundaries. The ability to negotiate many complex constraints and desires and to evaluate populations of possible outcomes both qualitatively and quantitatively offered by computational design processes make them invaluable tools in the transition towards a decarbonised built environment.
Students learn and apply computational design and evolutionary optimisation tools to negotiate solar and structural analysis and for a spatial design task emerging from a precedent case study. This subject is aimed at students from Architecture, Landscape Architecture and Interior Architecture.
