Towards Sustainble Design Technologies

The beginnings of Design Technologies at HdM implied mainly the development of custom project-specific solutions, meaning Computational Design. With the rise of new Services, focus on data and many other topics we felt the urge for more generic, flexible and scalable solutions. Michael will guide you through some developments, ideas and challenges of the industry that shape our DT practice.
