Abedian School of Architecture (Bond University)
CLASS SYNOPSIS:
This subject introduces students to the world of digital design and prototyping using the Rhinoceros software platform and the schools own state of the art Architecture Fabrication and Research Workshop. Rhinoceros is a core software platform utilised by industry for laser cutting, 3d printing, CNC routing, robotics, rapid prototyping and fabrication. Course instruction will be focused upon creating expertise
with basic Rhino commands and an introduction to parametric “file to fabrication” workflows.
These general strategies for efficient and productive 3d modelling for CNC operations including subtractive processes such as milling and contouring will be introduced through a critical lens.
A strong culture of making and prototyping is emphasised with output to include physical models utilising the Architecture Fabrication and Research Workshop CNC router, CNC illing Machine, and CNC wire bender.
LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THIS SUBJECT :
1. Demonstrated application of Nurbs modelling software skills in Rhino and parametric design using
Grasshopper.
2. Ability to rapid prototype utilising CNC equipment.
3. Ability to experiment, test and trial various conceptual ideas using digital fabrication.
