Description:

MAG LAB focuses on optimizing complex geometry with parametric design tools in conjunction with economic efficiency, structural performance, environmental impact, and programmatic progress. MAG LAB aims to create adaptable spatial organization by integrating architecture, landscape, infrastructure and urban planning, of which the formal consequences are generated through a variety of information in order to accommodate more possibilities of future.

Creative Art In Architecture workshop / AIU-Arab International University: MAGLAB

Posted in Design - Installations by MAGLAB

Synopsis This new workshop organized by MAG LAB in collaboration with AIU, created a Certain Continuity with the first Successful workshops on “Creative Art” done in 2010, 2011 and 2012.

This edition of the Creative Art is already showing how the students are reaching in each new workshop better and developed results , understanding deeply how this experience is a Simulation of their future as professionals.

Even this edition is more intensive and shorter (5 Intensive days) the work proceeded fast and all the groups showed that they understood the logic of the Creative Art workshop, exploring processes of the Interdisciplinary practice in contemporary architectural design.

The use of digital tools was inevitably involved for their unique capacity to embed complexity in the design process via information flow management and rule-based patterns.

Participants investigated specific geometric strategies such as those of folds, frazzles and plications as a mean for efficiency and performance (structural, movement).

Aim Aim of this workshop is to give students an insight on different ways to generate and represent ideas combining exercises based on art examples and natural processes as paradigms.

Students achieved this through theoretical classes, personal research and practical work.

The outcome was outstanding , colorful and full of energy.
