Master of Science
in architectural design and research with a
concentration on digital technology was an
advance degree program at University of
Michigan where I expanded my arsenal of design tools. Key topic of exploration included parametric design, scripted processes, aggregation systems, geometric reciprocity, etc.
Advanced modeling often outstrips material
reality. Part of the program therefore focused on fabrication techniques such as fused deposition modeling (3D prints), hot-wire cutting, and router milling.

Meanwhile as I was learning the syntax of Python, I was also inspired by the data-driven design principles in the field of information technology. Architecture, which includes expertise in space programming or smart building components, could be better informed by our data-rich
environment.
