Ludo faber alumni: playful experiences of digital manufacturing for the appropriation of educational spaces

Abstract

The present study is inserted in the learning context of the Architecture career of 40 students in a course of Applied Digital Fabrication. It seeks to explore the design possibilities that are produced by permeating game design features with digital architectural design and digital fabrication with each other. What spatial design potentials appear when introducing and intermingling the notions of Homo Ludens and Homo Faber in architectural generative design systems?
