Digitally printed matter is often lacking the irregular, vivid and tactile qualities of analog drawings that are results of a plethora of parameters of the physical world and its materialities (i.a. bleeding or drying of the inkpen, smudges, scratches, humidity changes, etc.)This course intends to give students the possibility to explore the vast potential for unique and individual expression, which… 2026S, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 2.0 ECTS

The course will address various topics within the field digital imagery and CG production. By introducing advanced tools and techniques and through productive experimentation we will also address the ongoing discussion around the digital realm, image sciences and the iconic turn. As new AI tools more and more take over classical Render and modelling techniques we will examine these tools… 2025W/2026S, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 4.0 ECTS

Today digital design and fabrication technologies are an integral part of common design workflows and at the basis of architectural practice. The translation/transformation from design to digital and physical matter is shaped by a range of tools and processes which are affected by material properties, technological advancements, culture and skill. Besides determining the respective boundaries/confines of digital and physical space,… 2025W, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 3.0 ECTS

The Machining PRAXIS in Architecture (MPA) course series explores the applications of computer numerically controlled (CNC) machines and machining technologies in architectural design and fabrication. Each year, a core subject is chosen to define the framework of the course. Core subjects are selected based on their relevance to architectural design and their potential for further investigation in real-scale architectural projects.… 2025W, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 4.0 ECTS

This course emphasises the use of advanced machining technologies in architectural design and making. Utilising machining not only as a method for fabrication but also as a design apparatus is at the core of Machining PRAXIS in Architecture. Students will build upon the knowledge acquired through their individual experiments in MPA-1 to design, develop, and fabricate upscaled installations or mock-ups.… 2026S, wissenschaftliches Seminar, 4.0 ECTS
