| GDES 3B67 Applied Materials for Designers 0.50 Credit(s) Studio/Seminar |
|
| Prerequisite: 9.0 credits, including all first-year requirements (5.0 credits) |
|
| This course will focus on materials science and material application within three-dimensional design practices. Through lectures, hands-on experiments and studio application, students will develop a greater understanding of how materials are developed/specified within design projects. This course will complement and extend the knowledge gained in core and other introductory building technology or materials studios, and give students an increased capacity to research, propose, specify and and utilise new materials. An emphasis on sustainability of materials, including full life cycle anaysis and LEED certification, will ensure that students have a knowledge of key contemporary areas of materials exploration and development, relevant to their own thesis projects and ongoing design practices. |
