Design as emergent making design as emergent making

Taylor, Piers

Abstract

Through design practice, this research seeks mutually beneficial possibilities and connections that can be made between making and architecture. It asks how space can be discovered and accrued through full scale making, rather than pre-imagined via scale models, drawings and thinking in ‘code space’ typical of architectural practice, and what this teaches participants in these workshops.

This research also asks what needs to be put in place for these workshops to be framed effectively, allowing groups to work with a shared ambition, and to allow design to emerge via this shared ambition where making is an act of collective discovery. This folio also aims to describe the purpose of making as a process that can inform design, and show how emergent design can offer a new methodology with which to work.
