Collaborative Design

(Vernetzt Entwerfen)

WS 2017/18

In the first semester students acquire fundamental digital skills. To develop their respective tasks, students work both independently and in teams fostering self-organization and collaboration.

Task 1

With the aid of Gimp, Adobe Photoshop or Affinity Photo, the students create a visual collage of a fictional architectural concept. They develop a frontal view of a utopian facade of a highrise building using both self-taken and researched photographs.

Task 2

As the core assignment in this module, the second task teaches Vectorworks and BIM principles through collaborative learning and design.

The students collaborate to develop a small city, primarily working in 3D modelling. They generate views, perspectives, sections, and more from their models.

Task 3

Lastly the students are tasked to render the inner view of their 3D-models. Thus the students can explore how to visually convey their design, generating an appealing and atmospheric perspective.
