DE-Lab Graduation Project Studio
Vision
The DE-Lab Graduation Project Studio envisions a transformative approach to architectural education, integrating advanced technologies and innovative design processes. Our aim is to nurture future architects who are equipped to tackle complex design challenges, blending creativity with technological expertise.
Mission
- To foster a research-driven environment that encourages experimentation and innovation in architectural design.
- To integrate cutting-edge technologies, including AI, parametric design, and digital fabrication, into the design process.
- To prepare students for the dynamic demands of the architecture profession through hands-on projects and interdisciplinary collaboration.
- To advance sustainable design practices and promote environmental responsibility in all aspects of architecture.
Goals
- Innovation: Develop pioneering design solutions that leverage the latest technological advancements.
- Sustainability: Prioritize eco-friendly design principles and energy-efficient strategies in all projects.
- Collaboration: Promote interdisciplinary teamwork among students from architecture, engineering, and other related fields.
- Practical Application: Bridge the gap between theoretical research and real-world architectural practice.
- Skill Development: Enhance students' technical and creative skills through comprehensive training and project-based learning.
- Community Impact: Engage with local and global communities to address pressing urban and environmental issues through innovative design solutions.
Methodology
- Research-Driven Approach: Conduct thorough research to inform design decisions, integrating findings from various fields such as environmental psychology, materials science, and urban planning.
- Technological Integration: Utilize advanced tools and software, including AI, parametric modeling, and digital fabrication, to push the boundaries of traditional architectural design.
- Iterative Design Process: Emphasize a cyclical design process that allows for continuous feedback, refinement, and improvement of design concepts.
- Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Facilitate teamwork across different disciplines to bring diverse perspectives and expertise to the design process.
- Hands-On Learning: Engage students in practical projects, workshops, and internships to apply theoretical knowledge in real-world scenarios.
- Sustainable Practices: Incorporate sustainable design principles at every stage, from concept development to final implementation, ensuring environmentally responsible outcomes.
This holistic approach ensures that graduates of the DE-Lab Studio are not only skilled designers but also innovative thinkers and responsible practitioners, ready to shape the future of architecture.
