1. To understand the thoughts across the city, architecture, interior, furniture and product design.
2. To acquire the technique of architectural product design that integrates objects and space.
3. To learn a design methodology for mobile architecture

In this lecture, distance lecture + sketch check will be held up to the 9th, and face-to-face sketch check will be held after the 10th.

Things to do the day before the lecture
- Please download the lesson data from KU-LMS. (It will be released from 0:00 on the day before class) *If you have any trouble, please send an email to Suzuki (suzuki@atelier-opa.com).

- Flow of the day of the lecture

For questions and answers, I will invite students to Google meet, so please attend at the designated time.

- Method of submitting an assignment
Please use the "report" submission function set for each lesson to submit the exercises.

Discussion Debate／Group Work／Presentation／Practice Fieldwork／Other

1. Guidance, about the syllabus. What is architectural product design?
2. Mobile architecture / Architecture that moves like furniture. Part 1: Architecture that can be packed in a suitcase and carried around. Rapid Sketch Prototyping 1.
3. Mobile architecture / Architecture that moves like furniture. Part 2: Architecture that can be disassembled, assembled, and transported. Rapid Sketch Prototyping 2.
4. Mobile architecture / Architecture that moves like furniture. Part 3: Paper architecture. Rapid Sketch Prototyping 3.
5. Mobile architecture / Architecture that moves like furniture. Part 4: Architecture that moves like furniture. Rapid Sketch Prototyping 4.
6. Architectural furniture / Furniture that has both architectural functions. Part 1: A product that is both furniture and architecture at the same time. Rapid Sketch Prototyping 5.
7. Architectural furniture / Furniture that has both architectural functions. Part 2: Disassembled, assembled, and expandable product. Rapid Sketch Prototyping 6.
8. Architectural furniture / Furniture that has both architectural functions. Part 3: A product that creates a place with light. Rapid Sketch Prototyping 7.
9. Conclusion. Architectural product design is moving toward intelligent space. Rapid Sketch Prototyping 8.
10. Practice of architectural product design 1. Brush up by choosing one of the ideas proposed in Rapid Sketch Prototyping (Sketch 1).
11. Practice of architectural product design 2. Brush up (Sketch 2).
12. Practice of architectural product design 3. Brush up (Sketch 3).
13. Practice of architectural product design 4. Brush up (Sketch 4).
14. Oral presentation, final report submission. We summarize the university's "Notification Form for Employee Inventions" to apply for a utility model or patent application.
15. On-demand lecture. "Joe Colombo's Architectural Product Design"

It will be evaluated by 8 "distance lesson exercises (rapid sketch prototyping)", 4 "face-to-face sketch", and "face-to-face presentation (oral presentation) and data submission" of the final exam. The rapid sketch prototyping is evaluated as 50% and the final test as 50%.

This class teaches with the theory and practice of "design method that crosses things and space" through eight "distance lesson exercises (rapid sketch prototyping)" and four "face-to-face esquisse".

I will hand out necessary documents in the class.

I will notify reference books in the class.

Time: In class, after class
Location: Accept by classroom and email
Inquiry email address will be announced in the first class

Through this lesson, you will be able to learn the theory of "architectural product design" that crosses the realms of things and space, and acquire practical techniques for shaping ideas with rapid sketch prototyping.
