After successful completion of the course, students are able to...

- to recognise the inherent possibilities and limitations of the chosen materials in relation to the desired design;

- to generate procedural and sensomotoric knowledge and thus expand their declarative planning knowledge;

- to become aware of the close connections between materials and manufacturing methods (technologies) as basic shaping conditions of three-dimensional objects;

- to develop their future form desires in a fundamental dialogue with the chosen material and technology;

See section "Lehrziel".

The success of a desired design as well as the qualitative implementation of design ideas and concepts in an (artistic) object or product depends, among other things, on knowledge and experience in handling materials and the technologies available for production processes. This course aims to convey these factors, which are interdependent in a complex way, and to test their multifaceted interwoven existence in the course of a concrete design.

The plaster room of our research department is made available as a learning environment. A one- or two-day workshop on the topic is the beginning. Initial ideas in the form of sketches are accompanied by material and manufacturing experiments. Exploring the material properties to their limits is an important part of finding out artistically relevant qualities.
