Project Details
Description
The project explores and applies architectural acoustics through early design processes to manufacturing processes and production of 1:1 prototypes. It integrates in this course; aspects of architectural acoustics, architectural parametric design, architectural theory and computer numerical controlled (CNC) manufacturing processes.
The course module is structured in 3 phases. First phase (1), initiates with an architectural design exploration focused on modular design of a surface element based on acoustic principles and material properties (wood and foam). Modular parametric systems is a central aspect. Second phase (2) focuses on a system as an assembly and joinery/details of the elements internal structure and its relation to neighbouring elements to form a larger acoustic surface. Acoustics become central aspect. Third phase (3) applies the knowledge gained in phase (1) and (2) to create an envelope formation that is based on acoustics, material and spatial properties.
The project is focused on three aspects; architectural acoustics, experimental design processes and computational methods for form analysis and form manufacturing. In this process, digital parametric models are central to create acoustic analysis, to develop multiple design proposals and to make physical prototypes and final models based on these studies
