Building on traditional knowledge of various quadric surfaces (paraboloid, hyperbolic paraboloid, single- and double-sheeted hyperboloids, ellipsoid, and cone), students were required to familiarize themselves with these surfaces, exploring their possibilities and their expressive and functional potential.
Students presented their projects in the form of models they built themselves, showcasing the design of spaces or objects based on quadric surfaces.
In turn, they studied the two-variable equations of the surfaces, the sections, and various characteristics specific to each project. This established a strong link between design and mathematics.
The instructor responsible for the course is Architect Marcel Perchman.
