Archilab – A Teaching Community
Summary of the Project
The project has been developing Archilab, a teaching community aimed at enhancing skills in computational design, visualization techniques, and AR/VR in architectural education. Recognizing the competitive nature of the architecture market, this initiative aims to equip students with essential skills such as high-quality renderings, videos, photogrammetry, and real-time VR/AR modeling. The project includes establishing a physical lab space to facilitate shared learning and direct interaction among students and staff. This space will provide the necessary hardware and software to support these advanced techniques, addressing the current lack of resources and professional guidance.
Aim of the Project
The primary aim of this project has been to create a knowledge-based community that enhances students' professional skill sets, preparing them for a dynamic and competitive market. By offering workshops, tutorials, and access to cutting-edge technology, the project seeks to improve students' abilities in visualization and computational design. The expected outcomes include developing an active student and staff community around these skills, providing a physical space for collaborative learning, and increasing student satisfaction by meeting their educational needs. The initiative aims to ensure that students can produce high-quality work, thus enhancing their employability and the overall educational experience within the Department of Built Environment. The project's success will be measured by the students' improved skills and the effective use of the lab space for learning and project development.
