The Emergent Technologies and Design (EmTech) programme is open to graduates in architecture and engineering who wish to develop skills and pursue knowledge in architectural design science situated in new production paradigms.
We continue to investigate new synergies of architecture and ecology through the critical intersection of computational design and advanced fabrication. Our focus is on exploring experiential, social and cultural potentials of new material and spatial configurations for architectural, urban and ecological design solutions situated in the dynamic contexts of emerging biomes. The programme is designed to stimulate critical thinking through experience of research-driven design projects that are developed in an intellectually rigorous and creative studio environment. Our projects are pursued by multiple iterations through hypothesis, material and computational experimentation, advanced fabrication including robotics, and evaluation; reflected upon in verbal presentations and group discussions; and documented in analytical and scientifically-structured papers.
