Description
The Master in "Material Balance Design. Digital Techniques and Circular Innovations in
Architecture" aims to train professionals to become unique and anticipatory figures in
the evolving context of architecture. It will develop skills in digital
techniques and strategies for circular innovation in architecture that are increasingly in
demand in the national and international construction market. The master's course is
blended with online theoretical sessions and in-person practical sessions at the ABC
Department's Maba.Saperlab Laboratory. The academic sessions aim to acquire basic
technical-scientific knowledge, which will then be used for the application sessions.
During the latter, the most advanced and sustainable methods of design, manufacture,
and prototyping of architectural components will be explored. The course concludes
with
individual work that prefigures future scenarios for experimentation on the project, also
developed through the internship experience.
Educational project
The Master "Material Balance Design. Digital Techniques and Circular Innovations in
Architecture" proposes to train new professionals capable of facing and managing
multidisciplinary projects through the synergy between digital technologies' potential
and
environmental balance needs. The course represents an opportunity to acquire
knowledge based on a new "material balance", from concept design to construction
details, capable of designing the transformation of our future environment with a
renewed awareness. Students will actively contribute to the study and creation of new
principles, tools, processes, and innovative products that rethink the contemporary role
of the designer. The teaching modules offered by the master will be as follows:
-WHAT IS A MATERIAL BALANCE
- COMPUTATIONAL DESIGN
-PERFORMANCE BASED DESIGN
SUSTAINABLE ACOUSTIC MATERIALS
THERMIC SIMULATIONS MATERIALS
LIGHT FILTERING MATERIALS
- DIGITAL FABRICATION
ROBOTIC MANUFACTURING
WOOD TECHNOLOGIES
TEXTILE TECHNOLOGIES
ARCHITECTURAL DEMONSTRATOR
- CIRCULAR MATERIALS SCOUTING
BIO-BASED MATERIALS
NATURE BASED SOLUTION
TOOLS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIAL FOR CONSTRUCTION
- EXECUTIVE DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
FACADE TECHNOLOGIES
- PUBLIC SPACE SANDBOX
- FUTURE SCENARIOS - METAVERSE
