Saiqa Iqbal, Xiomara Armijo Digital Fabrication MAA 2010-2011, IAAC The project was about to transform a given Lego Brick of specific dimension by using the software Rhinoceros as a modeling tool to print it by the 3d printer. The cylinders and the 8 corners was to be fixed for using each brick to join with [...]

Based upon 3-dimensional “cellular automata”, m.any displays the concept and prototypical realization of a complete digital work flow from parametric design to production on CNC-machines. An irregular spatial structure generated by algorithms was controlled and manipulated through an especially developed software. In addition to the calculation of the complex geometry, the software also generated necessary [...]

Christina Doumpioti Architectural Association, Emergent Technologies + Design The core idea of this research is the incorporation of the morphogenetic principles found in natural systems in the generation of fibre-composite structures by exploiting, at the maximum, the intrinsic performative capacities of the material system in use. The intention is the integration of form, material, structure [...]
