Camera Obscura

This 'CAMERA OBSCURA' was designed by a group of students from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) during the academical year 2006-2007 in the fall. The course entitled '1-2-Tree' is a project course in which students get the possibility to study the wood properties and the latest cad technologies and CNC machines. With this project the students wish to discuss (1) the need to reconnect the production knowledge to design using digital media, (2) the benefits to do hands-on projects in 1:1 scale with students instead of using just rapid prototyping, and (3) how we through university projects may help to open up new ways for architects and engineers to have their ideas realized in close cooperation with the industry through a digital chain from project to production.
