In its 12th year, Summer DLAB continues to build on its expertis e on complex architectural design and fabrication processes, relying h eavily on materiality and performance. The programme brings together a range of experts – tutors and lecturers – from internationally ac claimed academic institutions and practices, Architectural Association , Zaha Hadid Architects, among others.\n \nTaking place at the unique atmosphere of AA’s London home, the three-week long programme is fo rmulated as a two-stage process. During the initial stage, participant s are introduced to core concepts related to material processes, compu tational methods, and various digital fabrication techniques. During t he second stage, the fabrication and assembly of a full-scale architec tural intervention with the use of robotic fabrication techniques unif ies the design goals of the programme.\nProminent Features of the prog ramme:\n• Teaching team: Participants engage in an active learning e nvironment where the large tutor to student ratio (5:1) allows for per sonalized tutorials and debates.\n• Facilities: AA Digital Prototypi ng Lab (DPL) offers laser cutting, CNC milling, 3d printing facilities , and 2 KUKA robotic arms.\n• Computational skills: The toolset of Summer DLAB includes but is not limited to Rhinoceros, Processing, Gra sshopper, and various analysis tools.\n• Theoretical understanding: The dissemination of fundamental design techniques and relevant critic al thinking methodologies through theoretical sessions and seminars fo rms one of the major goals of Summer DLAB.\n• Professional awareness : Participants ranging from 2nd year students to PhD candidates and fu ll-time professionals experience a highly-focused collaborative educat ional model which promotes research-based design and making.\n• Robo tic Fabrication: According to the specific agenda of each year, scaled working models are produced via advanced digital machining tools, fol lowed by the fabrication of one-to-one scale prototypes with the use o f KUKA KR60 and KR30 robots.\n• Lecture series: Taking advantage of its unique location, London, Summer DLAB creates a vibrant atmosphere with its intense lecture programme.\nEligibility: The workshop is open to architecture and design students and professionals worldwide.\nAcc reditation: Participants gain 1 Year AA Visiting Membership and are aw arded AA Certificate of Attendance at the successful completion of AA Summer DLAB.\nApplications: The AA Visiting School requires a fee of  £1900 per participant, which includes a £60 Visiting Membership fee. Discount options for groups are available. Please contact the AA Visit ing School Coordinator for more details.\nThe deadline for application s is 17 July 2017. No portfolio or CV, only requirement is the online application form and fees.
