AA Visiting School in San Francisco

In the summer of 2011 (11-22 July), the AA will hold its second Biodynamic Structures workshop in San Francisco.

This two-week design workshop, co-taught by the Emtech faculty at the AA and the faculty of Architecture and MEDIAlab at California College of the Arts, will explore integral active and passive architectural systems that respond to changing environmental, spatial, and social needs.

Associative modeling, simulation techniques, material experiments, and digital fabrication tools will be integral to the design process and prototype-making. The work generated throughout the workshop and the final prototypes constructed will contribute to a publication and traveling exhibition at the culmination of the three-year program.

The deadline for applications is 20 June 2011.

Application forms and additional information are available online at http://www.aaschool.ac.uk/sanfrancisco and http://sanfrancisco.aaschool.ac.uk/.

Applications can be submitted to visitingschool@aaschool.ac.uk.
