Dare experiments! The book documents the teaching philosophy developed at the chair of
experimental design by Frank Stepper and his team at the University of Kassel. The approach
places an emphasis on fostering and developing aesthetic and formal imagination through
experimentation. Thinking the impossible helps to formulate architectural concepts that
progress beyond predictable causalities and functional constraints. For the emergence of
innovative designs and novel construction typologies analogue models are augmented with
computational strategies and digital fabrication methods. 20 Years of teaching Experimental
