English Description
This course expands on the fundamentals of model development and exposes students to various modeling techniques and materials. Students emphasize the model's conceptual, generative, and illustrational capacity to communicate design concepts at several scales. This subject's concept of the model is expansive, and the curriculum may cover models in both their physical and digital forms, with an emphasis on the production of physical artifacts. Students cultivate a material sensitivity that reveals the tactile, visual, and structural possibilities of any selected material. The course investigates additive, subtractive, and casting modeling processes with a variety of materials. Students enhance their previous understanding of the software to include sophisticated digital manufacturing processes, such as milling, rapid prototyping, and laser cutting, where applicable -
