About us
The future of living, thinking, working, learning and collaboration is not out there to be discovered, but to be invented, more precisely to be designed. In the age of computation, to be computationally designed. ...Mihai Nadin
   
What?
 

Computational Design is a discipline founded by Mihai Nadin and taught at the University of Wuppertal since 1994. Its purpose is twofold:

1. development of a computational theory of design;

2. the design of products and processes through the use of digital means.

These products and processes themselves integrate digital technology (they are embedded systems). Thus, the program's long-term goal is the constitution of the world of ubiquitous computing.
