Group: Liliana Viveros Diaz- Maria Margariti The aim of this assignment was to design a bench that would constitute part of a collaborative furniture project and construct a model of 1:2 scale using the waffle structure and a Laser Cut machine. The bench should be designed by transforming a given model in Rhino within a [...]

Team: Yashaswini Apte & Carlo Caltabiano CONCEPT: For the bench we decided on a sculptural look. Considering it was to be fabricated out of plywood we wanted to counter the rigidity of the waffle structure with fluidity of the surfaces. It is designed as a two seats accessed from opposite sides. The interplay of surfaces [...]

Group: Luz Michelle Lavayen and Erina Filipovska. Assignment: Digital Fabrication / laser cutting For this assignment we created a bench based on designing a waffle structure and getting into the process of fabricate our model with a laser cutter machine. The bench is actually a part of group a furniture, in order to do that [...]

Katerina Inepologlou / Diego López Ibarra TASK The mission was to design and 3d print a Lego Brick starting from a base model. The design should respect the four corners of the base, and keep the possitive and negative pair of lego’s cylinders. The dimensios of the base model were 65 mm x 65 mm x 130 mm. [...]

Assignment 1: 3D printing By Carolina Aguirre and Carolina Miro In order to take advantage of the unique possibilities of the printer, the brick assignment, although based on a simple object, challenged us to think in 3D. An organic design was chosen to contrast the rather planar geometrical constraints. The aim was to create a [...]

Team members: Antonio Tamez y and Daniela Quesada Rivas Process We decided to begin with an agreed triangulation design fro the composition of the mass, and then individually experimented with different trial bricks: The first dealt with the extrusion of curves to form poly-surfaces as the body and structure of the lego brick. However this [...]
