AA Visiting School Jordan 2016 - Amman, Aqaba / Red Sea

AA Jordan is a ten-day computational architecture workshop as part of the Architectural Association' Visiting School Programmes.

Hyperbolic Reefs

Dates: July 16 to 25, 2016

Location: Amman and Aqaba / Red Sea . Jordan

AGENDA:

At Jordan’s southern-most tip, the Gulf of Aqaba encapsulates a vast biodiversity of marine life including coral reefs and benthic organisms and habitats; many of which are endemic to the area.

As part of our programme agenda on ‘Natural Extremities’ we continue to build-up on design-research into unique ecological phenomena in the region. In July 2016, the focus will be on distinct marine topologies and morphologies found in the Gulf of Aqaba; and their transfiguration into outcomes within architecture and design with a particular focus on computational design methods. 

The ten-day programme will bring together a network of distinguished international faculty and guests to offer design-research units, specialist software tutorials and a guest-lecture series; the programme will be primarily based in Amman, and will include an exclusive visit to Aqaba were participants will study and document various marine habitats via snorkeling, photography and 3D-scanning.

By each grade there really are different types of assignments that are given as often as possible Students frequently take longer to do their assignments Their take home evaluation is something they tolerate rather than appreciate This ultimately affects how well they complete visit this link https://www.hubofstudy.com/ their homework and their grades To account for how students lives are changing we make care to update the advice we provide.

Hello everyone! I want to share the best essay writing service uk. I study at the university and I often have to ask for help. On the advice of friends, I made an order here and did not regret it a bit. The work was done quickly and efficiently. I am very glad that I made an order on this site.

This is a cool exhibit that helps people understand the importance of coral reef conservation. Such texts https://phdessay.com/free-essays-on/coral-reef/ help to find interesting facts about the coral population in the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean. I am sure that the degradation of the coral coast is associated with the technogenic catastrophe and the excess level of carbon dioxide is evidence of this.
