Welcome:
This website is a response to the challanges that have been laid down by the client, who is Mike Donn the course coordinator for BBSC 303 - Digital Craft.

The challange was to:

  • Understand the nature and role of computers in relation to architecture and its associated activities.
  • Understand some principles of operating systems and computer working environments.
  • Criticise knowledgably current and proposed developments in computer applications in architecture - with particular emphasis on CAD and the electronic office.
  • Understand some principles of information management and control - particularly with respect to project organisation and coordination via the Internet.
  • Use a CAD (currently AutoCAD ArchiCAD or Revit) and two rendering engines (currently Light Studio and Mental Ray) within a 3D graphics package (currently 3DS Viz 2007) and a simple web-authoring package with sufficient skill that they can construct a three dimensional model of a reasonable size building and publish the results on the World Wide Web.
  • Compare knowledgeably the options available in hardware and software for a range of computer application
As mentioned in the BBSC 303 Digital Craft website
