Master in Advanced Architecture 2011/2012
The aim of this project was the exploration of the advantages of the FDM printing as a fabrication technique. For this exercise, it was developed a set of prototypes of joints for a mechanical assembly. The concept pursued was to give the structure the capacity to change in length. The design of the joints gave [...]
This project was developed to explore the CNC milling processes through different digital designs, materials and tools. The material selected was the Valchromat (595 x 395 x 24) mm. For this exercise it was studied the design possibilities between Rhino and Rhino CAM in order to calibrate them with the milling machine. The concept used [...]
Photo by Mara Sylvester The lamp project was developed using paper/cardboard with bending technique. The concept pursued through this project, was the pureness of the material and technique. Because of this reason, geometries were explored in order to give structure to the paper. Additionally, it was necessary a folded element to achieve the needed stability [...]
