in this seminar we will theoretically develop and<br />
practically practise the basics of a convincing<br />
presentation: The development of a narrative<br />
structure, stringent visual and verbal argumentation,<br />
optimisation of visual presentation formats,<br />
formulation of messages and audience design.<br />

Selected Topics of Accessibility: Dis/<br />
ability and Built Spaces<br />
This course provides undergraduate and graduate<br />
students with an exploration of (in)accessibility<br />
through the analyses of spaces including rich<br />
input from various guests. Supplemented by<br />
normative guidance, precedents on universal<br />
design, and readings on inclusion, provide a<br />
comprehensive introduction to accessibility and a<br />
critical examination of the design of spaces that<br />
often remain exclusive. This course is structured<br />
around analyses and design projects. Site visits<br />
are planned as part of this course.<br />

Selected Topics of Accessibility:<br />
Designing a space for someone unlike you<br />
Inspired by an architecture studio taught at<br />
Berkeley, this course includes people with disabilities<br />
who will co-instruct the seminars and act as<br />
clients and experts in the design of spaces. Course<br />
materials (theoretical approaches and design<br />
guidelines) will complement the themes addressed<br />
by these clients experts. The task for architecture<br />
students will be not only to learn how to design<br />
accessible spaces, but also to listen to people’s<br />
needs and communicate about space and design<br />
intentions in an inclusive way.<br />
Regular times: Friday, 9:45-13:00<br />

Selected Topics of Comfort and<br />
Resilience: Daylight and visual comfort<br />
This course provides students with an in-depth<br />
introduction to solar geometry, daylight in buildings,<br />
visual comfort and view out. The non-image<br />
forming effect of light on our health and the<br />
challenges of visual impairment and will also be<br />
addressed. While rooted in architectural design,<br />
this course will draw on fundamentals of physics,<br />
ophthalmology, chronobiology and environmental<br />
psychology in order to better understand what is<br />
meant by visual well-being in spaces. This course<br />
is based on various analysis and design methods,<br />
such as scale models, real-world measurements<br />
and computer simulation. It is structured around<br />
analysis and design projects.<br />

Selected Topics of Structural Design:<br />
DomeCrafters<br />
The seminar DomeCrafters will focus on bending-active<br />
timber structures, from planning to<br />
realization. In the first part of the seminar, the<br />
students will be introduced to the underlying<br />
geometrical and structural principles of elastic<br />
bending, as well as typical digital workflows from<br />
form-finding to production. The main goal of the<br />
seminar is to realize a full-scale geodesic timber<br />
dome. Through this design & build exercise, the<br />
students will gain knowledge and experience<br />
in CNC fabrication and in the construction of<br />
geometrically complex structures. Knowledge in<br />
Rhino3D and Grasshopper is welcome, but is not<br />
a prerequisite.<br />
