| Overall Educational Objective | To learn to understand three-dimensional modeling, different possibilities of digital tools for the interior design process, to present basic design ideas in both technical and conceptual precision using digital tools, parametric design and fabrication methods. | ||||
| Course Description | This studio course concentrates on experimentation with digital design and fabrication techniques as a means of generating atmospheric effects. The digital techniques such as image sampler, contouring, folding, unfolding, tessellating, subdividing, 3-d printing will be introduced to students during the course. The students will produce the digital data for the fabrication during the class. Then, they select materials and fabricate the digital file. Later, they question the atmosphere when they are assembling the fabricated pieces. Thus, they interpret and transform the fabricated pieces in line with the design concept and program they developed. | ||||
| Course Description in Turkish | Bu proje stüdyosu öğrencilerin dijital ve fabrikasyon teknikleri aracılığıyla atmosfer tasarımları geliştirmelerine odaklanacaktır. Öğrencilere farklı haftalarda farklı dijital üretim teknikleri tanıtılacaktır. Öğrenciler, bu teknikleri kullanarak, malzeme seçiminden detay tasarımınının geliştirimesi ve dijital üretimin fizikselleşmesi sürecinin sorumluluğunu alacaklardır. Üretim için numerik parametrelere karar verilmesi, malzeme seçimleri, üretimden sonra malzemelerin biraraya getirilişi atmosfer tasarımının sorgulanması ile birlikte geliştirilecektir. |

bacinogluz@mef.edu.tr Saadet Zeynep Bacınoğlu Office: Saadet Zeynep Bacınoğlu Email: bacinogluz@mef.edu.tr Attendance is essential for this course. The students are responsible of following the instructions in each presentation and complete an individual in-class assignments. In total, four in-class assignments will be submitted as four individual projects. The assembly of four projects will be questioned for a final submission. Late submissions will not be accepted. All students are responsible for behaving personally and academically in a way that is expected from a university student. That behavior includes but is not limited to respecting views and ideas of peers; not being involved in a discriminating behavior concerning race, religious beliefs, sexual orientation; always using ones own ideas in their projects. Plagiarism is not allowed and is a serious academic offense. All student work must be original work of the student that is the outcome of his/her intellectual efforts in the studio under the guidance of instructor.
