The course will be divided into two modules. In the first one there will be an in-depth study of perspective and visual perception, through the study of individual topics, such as the following: – Perspective reconfigurations. Construction of reconstructions on one or more levels. – Reflection anomalies in conical and cylindrical mirrors. – Reflections in flat mirrors. – Optical illusions through perspective, impossible constructions (Ames’ Room, Escher, etc.) – Perspective reconstructions. – Stereoscopic perspective. – Perspective of the anaglyph. – Perspective display on a side panel. – Perspective display on a curved board. – Principles of perspective in photography, combining photography with perspective imaging, incorporating perspective into a photograph, reconstructing views and floor plans from a photograph. The second module will examine geometric forms and design methods that have been or could be applied to architectural projects. In this context, individual topics such as the following will be examined through the tool of algorithmic design: – Constructions with minimal surfaces. – Constructions with flat and curved panels. – The geometric approach to pleated structures. – The geometry of tensegrities. – Construction influences from independent points. – The creation of surfaces through triangulations and point grids. – The concept of finding an optimal solution to a design problem. Students will draw knowledge from both of these streams and deliver a project.
