Description:

This course will focus on 3D form making procedures for iterating between digital and physical outputs. There are no prerequisites (i.e., no prior 3D digital modeling experience) for this class. Multiple software platforms and physical drivers will be used; Rhinoceros, SolidWorks, nTopology, Keyshot, digital fabrication, analog shop equipment, hand tools and other stuff. Students will become comfortable working in a digital 3D environment, using software as a generative design tool. The studio will be project based with alternating weekly software demonstrations and student project reviews. Design prompts will be assigned to facilitate a through line for class discussions. Individual project topics are expected to be up to you.
