summary |
The digital design studio has an area of application where
conventional media are incapable of being used; collaboration
in learning, design and dialogue with people in places other than
where one lives. This distinctive opportunity has lead the authors
to explore a form of design brief and virtual design studio (VDS)
format not well addressed in the literature. Instead of sharing the
same design brief, students in this alternative format design a
project in the other students’ city and do not collaborate on the
same design. Collaboration with other students takes the form of
teaching each other about the city and culture served by the
design. The authors discovered these studios produce a focus on
site context that serves our pedagogical objectives–a blend of
architectural, landscape architectural and urban design knowledge. Their students use a range of commercial CAD and computer supported collaborative work (CSCW) software common
to that used in many VDS experiments reported on in the literature.
However, this conventional use of technology is contrasted
with a second distinctive characteristic of these studios, the use of
custom software tools specifically designed to support synchronous and asynchronous three-dimensional model exchange and
linked attribute knowledge. The paper analyzes some of the virtual design studio (VDS) work between the Swiss Federal Institute
of Technology, the University of Toronto, and the University of
Melbourne. The authors articulate a framework of VDS dimensions that structures their teaching and research. |
