Harnessing Data-Driven Design: A Collaborative Look at Hyper B’s Industrial Team Vision for Urban Farming

Industrial team dedicated to rethinking how we approach urban farming, renewable energy, and multifunctional infrastructure, is leading the charge. Their integrated workflow uses parametric modeling, automated data exchange, and business intelligence (Power BI dashboard) to optimize space usage and resource allocation in urban environments. In this post, we dive into a series of visuals that … Read more

KOMA

can robots and humans work hand in (hand) to create beautiful architecture? KOMA is a contemplative space, designed to be set in the landscape and allow for peaceful viewing, the form of KOMA is parametric and is able to sway with the wind through the use of tensile cables. The vertical timber elements were placed … Read more

SYMBIOTIC SPACES

Climate change has become one of the primary drivers of forced displacement around the world, giving rise to the phenomenon known as climate migration. Here are some examples of statistics in the last year, forcing people to move to other cities and countries. Some of the most relevant examples of this displacement, have been occurred … Read more

Bio-Digital Hybrid

The project aims to addresses 3 key problems, by creating a system that brings together anthropogenic mass and bio-mass, sequesters carbon and purifies the air within it’s immediate context. The project is envisioned as an adaptive system, that can be aligned towards solving different problems through biological and digitally integrated structures that can impact it’s … Read more

Re-Thinking Prison

COLOR world _ 1st stage

Concept Re-Thinking Prison explores the potential of virtual spaces to rehabilitate inmates by offering environments that encourage emotional growth and learning. Inspired by Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights, this project envisions three distinct worlds—Color, Nature, and Minimalist—as transformative experiences for inmates. Each world is designed to guide inmates through emotional introspection, mental restoration, and … Read more

.WAVE LIGHT.

“When light scenography meet architecture” .Manifesto. This pavilion is conceived as an immersive scenographic installation that merges architectural geometry, lighting design, and environmental interaction. At its core, the project explores the dynamic relationship between form, light, and water, transforming the structure into a performative space that engages visitors through a carefully choreographed visual experience. The … Read more

ADAPTIVE WINDOW BLINDERS

INTRODUCTION TO PROGRAMMING AND PHYSICAL COMPUTING CONCEPT This innovative prototype is designed to automatically adjust the angle of shading in response to changing ambient light conditions, enhancing both comfort and energy efficiency. The project is focused on enhancing energy efficiency, comfort, and usability in architectural spaces by effectively harnessing and optimizing natural light. This approach … Read more

THE CRYSTAL LATTICE

The objective of this assignment is to design a parametric facade that incorporates movable panels. This innovative approach aims to enhance both the aesthetic appeal and functionality of the building, allowing for adaptability to various environmental conditions. By exploring the principles of parametric design, we can create a dynamic exterior that responds to changing light, … Read more

ChromaEnergon

ChromaEnergon represents an innovative approach to student housing architecture that transcends conventional design paradigms tapping the potentials of climatic energy and thermochromic pigments. This concept leverages verticality, slenderness, and dispersed tower structures to create dynamic living environments. By strategically mapping energy into various spaces through the skin which the facade, ChromaEnergon aims to generate unique … Read more
