DEA 3306 - Generative Design Studio


(LAD-HE, SBA-HE)      
Spring. 4 credits. Letter grades only.

Co-meets with DEA 6406 .

S. Kalantari.

This studio aims to familiarize students with the generative approach in the design process and learn about topics including essential mathematics for computational design, shape grammar, design optimization tools, evolutionary computing, and generative design theory. Students will work in teams to design and develop a generative system that can work in conjunction with a human (a designer or non-designer) to create a product that is not achievable by a human or a computer working alone.

Outcome 1: This studio aims to familiarize students with the generative approach in the design process and allow them to explore opportunities for creating a novel generative design tool.

Outcome 2: To comprehend principles and methods in the field of generative design, and identify opportunities of generative tools for human-centered design.

Outcome 3: To apply effective and accurate visual representation, clear and concise verbal presentation, and an articulate written argument in communication.

Outcome 4: To demonstrate the ability to synthesize information and ideas through written and visual communication — and to critically apply this information to creative research and practice.
