This lecture explores the process of working closely with raw materials, understanding their characteristics, and transforming them into architectural elements through various exercises and machine treatments. Students experiment with different materials like metal and glass, learning about connections and fabrication technologies. The focus is on developing a new language in architecture by interacting directly with materials and machines, leading to innovative detailing and construction methods.
