The project’s inspiration came from a new in 2020 when a blue shark was seen in the port of Pozzuoli. This event is … Read more
Data driven design is a concept that depicts the act of relaying in compiled data to resolve design issues, when data applied to design perspective is a sum of quantitative and qualitative resolutions related to project requirements. That resolution relies heavily on ability of interpretation, decision making and critical thinking of each professional. The case … Read more
Introduction Design brief required us to develop a proposal for a new Conservation Museum to raise awareness about wild animal species extinction. During my initial research I realized there are multiple reasons behind various wild species extinction like climate change, deforestation, industrialization & overpopulation. A common theme in this has been interference of human race … Read more
As the brief stated we were to design a Wildlife Museum (A Conservation Museum to Raise Awareness About Wild Animal Species Extinction) in the caldera where Lake Agnano exists just outside of Naples, Italy. My first impression was “wow this is such a pristine wilderness in the middle of urbanized development, how could we put … Read more
A new wildlife museum will appear in the crater Agnano, in Naples, Italy. The purpose of the museum is to raise attention to wild nature, learn about endangered species, and experience pure nature. The project aim is to create a path of experiences through the landscape and reduce the footprint to minimize the invasion. Along … Read more
During a time when the extinction of wildlife is increasing exponentially, this museum aims to raise awareness bout the impact that humans have on the biosphere. The museum starts at a nucleus where the main gallery lies, converges to a narrow strip that guides the visitor along the strip of water, and finally branches out … Read more
Introduction Wildlife awareness is an extremely relevant subject of study. Wild animals and forests form part of the vital natural resources of a country and as such, all the components of forests are categorized under Wildlife. From time immemorial forest resources have been a source of human sustenance. They are home to the most amazing … Read more
Aggregation-oriented, Extinction Museum, Pozzuoli, Naples, Italy. Concept The extensive environmental deterioration and the extinction of countless animal species have been attributed to the Anthropocene period, a geological epoch that represents the tremendous impact that human activity has had on the Earth’s ecosystems and climate. Anna Tsing, Heather Swanson, Elaine Gan, and Nils Bubandt explore the … Read more
Design Description: This design attempts to find interesting possibilities for architectural design through an experimental approach. Particle systems can simulate the trajectory and direction of biological activity. By artificially adding some constraints and particle behavior guidance to the site analysis, an architectural form is finally formed from the bottom up by relying on the spontaneous … Read more
Inspiration – Treehouses The project was inspired by treehouses which are generally associated with forests. The idea was to minimize the intervention of the forest as much as possible by occupying very less forest area per unit. Concept The circles have been manipulated to form a shell structure upon which fins are added to give … Read more
WILDLIFE MUSEUM FOR AGNANO CRATOR, NAPLES, ITALY This new wildlife museum has a main purpose to raise awareness about wild animal species extinction.

In this case, aggregation is the chosen method using the Wasp plugin in grasshopper. CONCEPT DESIGN Concept inspired by the nearby ruins of Pompeii … Read more
Walk with Me is a form finding project for a Wildlife Museum Concept in Pozzuoli, Naples, Italy. The design is motivated by the landscape of the site. The park makes a special movement on the surface, becomes a pit, and offers a variety of paths. Circulation is an important part of museum design. The link … Read more
How can a building embody the principles of evolution? This project explores the use of cellular autonomy as a form generator. The principle of cellular autonomy allows for the creation of complex forms Video
Learning How to Swarm I learned about swarms a number of years ago from online lectures and articles in Architectural Design (AD) such as Swarm intelligence (2009) by Neil Leach. The topic has been discussed in architecture for at least two decades with research papers (2000) that still included Altavista email addresses. I had no … Read more
