"Production of a temporary installation" July 13> 29 - Torino

Background
the synergy of Polytechnic turin, Architectural Association and Columbia University created a border-line between research design and architecture aimed at the creation and production of a temporary structure to be installed at the University of Gastronomic Sciences during the period of Designing Connected Places. Parametric design systems are used to conceive an experimental public space capable of responding to some stimuli investigated in the six workshops.

Application project
In a city with a complex structure in which the interactions between the two sides intensified, in which the number of decision makers and cultural scenarios overlap, interpenetrate, and sometimes clash, is must respond with new forms, new bodies and new systems of urban management of the project. In this scenario, how can the digital parametric design and rapid prototyping become tools of research and development? How can they be 'exploited to investigate key issues such as health and welfare, efficiency, urban mobility, safety and ecology? "

Background.
The synergy between the Politecnico di Torino, the Architectural Association and Columbia University gives life to research on the border between design and architecture to conceive and produce a temporary structure to be installed at the University of Gastronomic Sciences of Pollenzo during the period of Designing Connected Places. Parametric design systems are used to conceive an experimental public space able to respond to some of the stimuli investigated in the six workshops.

Project question.
In a city with a complex structure where interactions between the parties involved intensify, in which the number of decision-makers and cultural scenarios overlap, interlink, and clash Sometimes, a response is required with new forms, new bodies and new urban planning management systems. In this scenario, how can digital parametric design and rapid prototyping tools Become of Research and Development? How Can They Be Exploited to investigate Fundamental questions like health and well-being, the efficiency of urban mobility, security and ecology?
