"Coding Architecture I-II" is a programming class for architects with particular focus on demystifying technology - both software and hardware - and exploring the programmability of our world through powerful methods of digital, computational, and algorithmic design. This course welcomes students from all backgrounds, as no prior coding experience is required.

"Coding Architecture II" is a programming class for architects with particular focus on demystifying technology and exploring the programmability of our world through powerful methods of digital, computational, and algorithmic design and fabrication.In the spring semester, we dive into digital timber using the compas_timber library to design reciprocal frame structures and materialize them.

The courses “Computational Design III and IV” focus on exploring digital architectural culture. They examine the central question of how digital methods and strategies can be used creatively and purposefully, as well as consciously and critically, in the design process in order to have a sustainable impact on building culture.

The courses “Computational Design III and IV” focus on exploring the theories and cultures of the digital in architecture. They examine the central question of how digital methods and strategies can be used creatively and purposefully, as well as consciously and critically, in the design process in order to have a sustainable impact on building culture.

The course introduces the fundamentals of digital design in architecture. The aim is to develop a deeper understanding of the role of digital processes within a contemporary building culture. At the core stands the question of how to use digital architectural design methods in a creative, purposeful and self-confident manner.

What demands does today’s dynamic context, with its multifaceted challenges, place on future architects? A rapidly changing world in the wake of climate change calls for environmentally conscious, sustainable design and construction more than ever before.Studio Foundations addresses this growing complexity with an interdisciplinary first-year course.
