SUMMARY:HIGH-LOW : AA São Paulo Design Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The aim of this programme is to rehabilitate marginalised 
 environments, populations and materials through the use of innovative 
 computational ecological design and digital fabrication processes. Wit
 h these tactics we will define a new generation of digital design that
  employs both high-tech and low-tech strategies. Parametric design gen
 eration and digital fabrication techniques will be used to computation
 ally redesign low-tech building strategies, mixing high-tech expertise
  with local labor knowledge. Taking place in the Escola São Paulo, a 
 cultural centre for art, fashion and design, the objective of the work
 shop is to transform conventional sustainable design strategies so as 
 to bring ecological design a new aesthetic and social agenda.\n \nThu
 s, this high-tech/low tech strategy will focus on environmental mediat
 ion, using high-tech environmental computational simulation software a
 nd environmental parametric design to design low-tech environmental me
 diation systems. The workshop will employ agent-controlled scripts to 
 calibrate devices to respond to the forces of the sun and wind. Enviro
 nmental simulation, both within and outside the parametric modeling in
 terface will give instant performance feedback, to further streamline 
 the design process. To support this aim, the workshop will collaborate
  with the Environmental Engineering Design Agency, B.D.S.P. The goal i
 s to create spatial organizations for various social programs, setting
 s and building types, using different types of devices, such as natura
 l-light reflecting light-shelves, natural-ventilation systems, and sol
 ar-shading brise-soleils to alleviate the effects of the harsh urban h
 eat-island.\n \nOpen to design professionals and students from all ov
 er the world, the studio-based workshop will include instruction in pa
 rametric modeling, environmental simulation software, Rhino Grasshoppe
 r, GECO, and Galapagos, (to integrate parametric environmental optimiz
 ation and simulation), as well as digital fabrication processes using 
 laser cutter, C.N.C. milling and rapid-prototyping machines, sponsored
  by DS4 and SEACAM, all of which will be used to produce design propos
 als physical models and one-to-one scale prototypes. The course will b
 e taught by tutors and assistants from the AA School and B.D.S.P. The 
 Visiting School will also feature semi–nars and lectures by both Bra
 zilian and international architects, artists, urban planners and other
  specialists, and be featured in international and national media incl
 uding the Arquitetura e Urbanismo (AU) magazine and digital media.\n\n
