The MAA is a visionary master program with an innovative and open structure, mixing diverse disciplines, shaping professionals capable of producing theoretical & practical solutions towards responsive cities, architecture & technology.
The seminar focuses on performative data informed structures for extreme contexts. Being a two-term seminar, it links structural design and fabrication techniques, by means of feedback between digital and physical. While using structural engineering plugins for Rhino and Grasshopper, students gain knowledge on how to design based on concepts and typologies of structural optimisation. This culminates in off-site construction methodologies, testing 1:1 connections and/or assembly methods.
