dc.description.abstract This proceeding presents the process and outputs of a collaborative workshop which was held between Yasar University in Turkey and Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. The aim of the workshop was to observe the educational potentials of a custom-made formwork device towards teaching CAD/CAM to architecture students. This flexible formwork which we call FlexiMold is a hybrid device that is used manually by following computerized numeric information. The students designed an architectural object which has a complex shape and used this formwork to fabricate it in actual scale. We present the workshop objectives process and outcomes in this proceeding.

dc.description.sponsorship We would like to thank Yasar University for funding the project through Scientific Research Project Fund; Prof. Dr. I. Sevil SARIYILDIZ for supervising and enabling the collaboration and Mark Giraud from Polkima for providing us the workshop materials and the hands on know-how.
dc.description.sponsorship In addition to introducing skills and know-how within CAD/CAM, the workshop aimed at familiarizing the students with the collaborative aspects of design and fabrication as well as assisting them towards developing insight on the tight relationships between fabrication techniques and design thinking. The workshop setup was structured towards achiev- ing these objectives. The first phase of the workshop was based on distant collaboration in which the students of both universities worked in parallel; while the students of TUDelft were developing the design, the students of YU were developing the fabrication system and examining its potentials and constraints in order to communicate with the design team. After the design proposal is completed, all of the students have gathered in Izmir for a five days' hands-on workshop in order to fabricate the design object. The workshop was funded by the Scientific Research Project Fund of Yaşar University, TUDelft Design Informatics Chair and Polkima Plastic Solutions.
