Workshop Instructor: Ar. Balaji Rajasekaran
CAST Workshop explored casting as a technique and explored an operative design framework that synthesize the multiple formative forces of spaces. Physical forces acted as an agency of design, following the legacy of learning through making and thinking through hands. The workshop investigated the physical parameters as effective constraints in design development and attempted to envision a process that ensures continuity between the stage of design and the materialization of the output.
Participants were introduced the concept of material thinking as a design driver and through digital tutorials and physical model-making inorder to acquire an understanding of the relationship of input and output that characterizes non-linear systems.
