Architectural education and digital tools: the challenges and opportunities

Abstract

Enriching architectural education with digital tools is the subject of this article. Such tools can create, support and visualise architecture. The focus in this article is on an interdisciplinary approach to media architecture (allowing variable visual content of architectural objects) and interactivity (user-space communication), revealing new possibilities in terms of human perception. The results of a survey on media architecture among 110 students are also presented. Described in the article are two courses related to new technologies that are conducted in the Faculty of Architecture at Gdańsk University of Technology (GUT), Gdańsk, Poland, including co-operation with the Faculty of Electronics, Telecommunications and Informatics. Presented also are the challenges of the visualisation of studentdesigned structures (example: the Coal Market), comparing traditional tools with innovative 1:1 visualisation methods in the Immersive 3D Visualisation Laboratory at GUT, and stressing the potential of this environment for new ways of media and interactive solution visualisation.
