Master in Advanced Architecture 2012/2013
The project consist in the design and manufacturing of a piece which had to fit within a cylindrical bounding box of 49.5 mm diameter and 200 mm height. It was necessary to respect a central core consisting of a 3mm thick tube with a 3.75mm radius hollow space at its center.
The principal aim was the structural and material optimization, working primarily in an anticlockwise direction.
A parametric formation of the mimic prototypes, that it’s receiving the light by a different bigger component like a gravity center and an attraction point just in the golden section of the hexagon. The prototypes rotation angle, it’s 45 degrees to achieve the clear straight view from the source of light, through 3 alignment points, human eye, prototypes like a first layer and the grid like a second layer.
