08 EX 12 - 'Spatial Investigations / Xorikes Dierevniseis'
School of Architecture, Aristotle University Thessaloniki
2014-2015 :: Spring semester
http://xorikesdierevniseis.blogspot.com


The course’s object is the research on the procedure of architectural design and the investigation of its origins and its limits. The course will attempt to connect architectural design, as a deep, creative procedure with the broad fields of innovation, the study of structures (typological, formal, technological, biological, etc.), the scientific observation, as well as other scientific and creative fields, using advanced technologies for the design, spatial representation and digital fabrication.

Exhibition
A. Tellios, curator, 'Hidden natures'
‘On Architecture - Facing the Future’, organized by Strand
Gallery of Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts, Belgrade, Serbia
http://www.strand.rs/future/index.html

‘Hidden natures’ is the result of design research on innovative architectural configurations. It speculates on experimental tectonics and complex architectural conditions articulated using advanced design and modelling tools. It investigates the spatial potential derived by interdisciplinary study of natural mechanisms, structures and living organisms.

urbanBLUR is a publication bringing together writings and visual inserts on multi-layered infiltrations between city and nature. The notion of BLUR refers both to a fusion of disciplines forming space as well as an interactive dispersion of natural and artificial elements redefining contemporary human environments.

Aspects of Islamic gardens: Multi-meanings of paradise
Kavala, Greece, 10-12 October 2014

The origins for composing the ‘Filigree folds’ installation are placed on the cupola dominating the area inside the space allocated and the interplay with natural light entering from the windows. A delicate, swinging octagonal chain inscribed in the cupola, remnant of an old lighting installation, gives the space a sense of expectation. The projections of these two elements on the ground create the processing canvas of the installation. This canvas is activated by light. Light itself and the choreography of the produced shadows are distinct elements and standard reference within islamic culture.

Book details:

Anastasios Tellios (editor), 

Agile Design: Advanced Architectural Cultures

CND Publications, Thessaloniki, 2014

ISBN 978 960 88610 9 1

Agile Design approaches the astonishing world of new design capabilities and advanced techniques in modeling and fabrication that are reshaping architecture. Agile Design is design in a state of constant, intellectual polyvalence while at the same time attempting to claim scientific validity and communicative integrity. Spectacular, innovative and often stylish manifestations of rampant design technologies are there. It describes how gradually, yet persistently, a set of profoundly advanced architectural cultures is being established, conveying aspects of a new and promising paradigm for architecture.

This book is a collection of contributions by designers, theorists, educators and practitioners of architecture, all of whom hold more than one of these identities. It is articulated in three parts: Documentation of tools and matter, Dimensions of nature and life, Research on context and culture.
