Geometric transformations enable to depict spatial objects and develop shapes. In this seminar we used transformations for architectural form and space studies. The "House El Even Odd" by Peter Eisenman e.g. was created with the help of an affine transformation. The relief perspective, geometrically drawn up especially for the design of stage sets, can be interpreted as the implementation of the perspective as a spatial transformation. We have taken a few examples and modeled them in 3D. The relationship between the metric and the perceived space, of proportions and their perception, can be thematized in this way.

he analysis of the topic formed the basis for the own practical and creative implementation in experiments on the topic of geometric transformations in architecture. Workshops on 3D modeling with Rhinoceros were integrated on request.
