Materiality in Landscape Architecture (Environments 03)

Ata is coordinating a core course, Environments 03, in the first semester of 2018 at RMIT University. Environment 03 offers to deeply engage with the relationship of material, form, construction, and space and seeks to equip students with advanced skills that assist you in the production of spatial form. The course operates as a material practice and is fundamentally engaged with processes of material experimentation and making while closely considering norms of production, documentation, material performance and respective spatial formation.

The course started with extracting knowledge or design information from biophysical elements of a real project and reproduce it by detailed drawings and models to understand the relationships between space, elements, materials and details. The course introduces techniques for analytical spatial readings in documentation and modelling, techniques of construction and fabrication as well as structural systems. Further, students will engage with techniques for the production and prototyping of form. In this course, students will develop skills in research of material and space in the urban context of Melbourne. They apply the learned skill in a design project that introduces material making, prototyping and the production of a scaled form.
