Interactive Design | Online Workshop | English | Europe-Mideast-Africa
Description:
Usually seen as a static form, architecture now faces the dynamism of current life. While older buildings get demolished or sometimes renovated, modern buildings strive to be multifunctional structures, open for different scenarios and needs that life suggests. Design process of new fluid and dynamic buildings and spaces becomes more open and inclusive for everyone. And special design tools should be created for this.
The first part of the workshop will be dedicated to learning the basics of modeling in Blender, creating a modular kit of parts for an architectural project. Special attention will be paid to preparing and optimizing 3D models for displaying in browsers.
During the second stage of the workshop, participants will be creating a web app for designing transformable modular spaces and structures. The goal of creating the app is to allow people to interact with the structure, generate options and suggest new possible ways of its existence. Participants of the workshop will jump into the basics of web development, HTML, CSS, learn coding in JavaScript, WebGL technology and Threejs library. The final app will be hosted online, on glitch.com.

Stepan Kukharskiy SA lab,Co-founder, partnerStepan Kukharskiy is a co-founder at SA lab. SA lab is an up-and-coming architectural company from Saint-Petersburg, Russia, focusing on adaptive architecture, easily reacting to climate, social and other parameters and transforming over time. SA lab is among TOP 85 young architectural bureaus in Russia according to KB STRELKA and TOP 10 young architectural bureaus according to ARCHMOSCOW 2017 exhibition. SA lab projects have been featured in a wide range of publications: CNN, Archdaily, Design Milk, Archinect, Dwell, etc. Stepan is an expert in computational design. In 2020 he joined many educational events as a tutor: eCAADe2020 (Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe) hosted by Technische Universität Berlin, LiveAcademy (an online platform bringing together the brightest minds in architecture and design, to meet and share their ideas of the future), 360FEST.online and many others. Stepan has a profound experience in generative systems and generative design tools, 3D printing, Python, JavaScript, Unity, WebGL. Stepan holds Master of Architecture degree from SPbSUACE. -
