Almost 80 students who are at the third grade of the Architectural Department enjoyed the Design Play 1 and 5 at the Shibaura Institute of Technology in Tokyo. They first made hand writing in the class spending about 20 minutes followed by the explanation of the constructor, Professor Minami. The illustrations in the book of “Conversations with Forms” and some drawings by the instructor were shown as a guidance. After the class students spend a couple of weeks to explore their studies using the Sketch Up as their home works. Some students have no experience to use the Sketch Up before so it took some time to start the Plays. Professor Minami told the students there is no right nor wrong answer for the Design Plays and that students can just develop their design skills by enjoying the Plays. You can see the varieties of our students’ works. This is just the beginning of our students’ works.

Freehand designplay; thinking, drawing and writing. play three
This DesignPlay was done before computers were used in design. It was done by Christina Gryboyianni, partner at De-Ar Architects, Athens, but at that time student at MIT. The play is also shown in the book “Conversations with Form” which I did with Andrés Mignucci and Jonathan Teicher, where it is Play Three of the seven plays featured in it. For the sake of clarity in lay-out Christina’s play was redrawn there, but in this site we have room for the coloured freehand drawings by which this play was submitted originally. This allows us to appreciate the rendered stages as a kind of thinking out loud while the designer moves on in her conversation with the form. We can read how she comsiders in a particular phase what options are available, what is still missing and why she decides on a next move. (more…)

DESIGNPLAY FIVE, FROM STUDENT WORKSHOP AT S.I.T.
This post shows results of DesignPlay Five as stated in the book “Conversations with Form” done by graduate students at Shibaura Institute of Technology in a quick workshop after a brief introduction. The students enjoyed the playing.The plays are shown unaltered and without selection. I show them as such because it seems an interesting opportunity for the students to get comments from other students as well as teachers from different places. Which is the purpose of this site.
I therefore invite you to add comments and tell us which plays you rate as most interesting and please tell us why you think so.
