BİLGİ Faculty of Architecture hosts M. Sc. architect and researcher David Jenny from Gramazio Kohler Research, ETH Zurich.  Within ComputationBasedBasicDesign Studio, David Jenny will give an online lecture titled as "RECENT TEACHING PROJECTS"  via BlackBoard Collaborate. His lecture will shortly introduce the conceptual framework of research in digital fabrication at  Gramazio Kohler Research, ETH Zurich, and how it relates to teaching methodology. Then it will focus on recent  teaching projects that have been developed together with the students of the MAS Architecture and Digital Fabrication.  By presenting a series of projects the relation of different material systems to their respective computational design  and digital fabrication models will be shown. Finally we will discuss on how these projects all relate to future sustainable  construction methods in an interdisciplinary setting.
