Design Processes - Latin America
Daniela Atencio
This publication focuses on two issues associated with a technological approach and its relationship with research in the architectural discipline. First, the investigation concerns specific technological tools (software and hardware) based on interactions with a 6-axis robotic arm and deepens the scholarly exploration of design strategies that can amplify creative pedagogies for undergraduate architecture students in Latin America. Second, advanced prototyping in a research and creation process allows questioning disciplinary issues through speculative and narrative techniques or conceptualizations of architectural objects (artifacts). In this case, the research-creation objectives become pedagogical objects, examining a disciplinary reinterpretation, or reintegration, with the digital world; likewise, opening contemplation on how learning from specific stylistic or conceptual issues can generate new perspectives and promote new inflections and representations for the design process.
