The Summer School will focus on exploring ideas and producing design artifacts as answer to some fundamental driving questions: What kind of tectonic configurations can be enabled by means of digital fabrication such as additive and robotic manufacturing? How do we realize high-performance architecture with it? How can we build bespoke architecture in a sustainable way? Adopting a design/make approach, catalyzed through tailored computational techniques, various structural configurations will be investigated. The school outcomes will be contributing to the creation of an atlas of digitally fabricated tectonic prototypes: Experimental architectural configurations where material/form/structure are developed in a coherent design approach which takes full advantage of the potential of emergent fabrication techniques.

Mandatory prerequisites: 
Completion of at least two academic years (equivalent to 120 ECTS) in the fields of Architecture, Engineering and Design, before the summer school starts.

Recommended prerequisites: 
Students should be interested in or curious about digital design and innovative fabrication methods.

Admission/Tuition:
Exchange students from a partner university pay no tuition.
