S2_Studio Project However, loading scenarios are simplified to an ideal case therefore the entire structure needs further reinforced with lateral support . In order to achieve this, buttresses are added along large span peripheral in addition to the vertical columns. Conclusion: Structural analysis is a sophisticated process, so as associated computer programming. Students are advised … 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
INTRODUCTION Known as the capital of the North, Tripoli is Lebanon’s second largest city: from a regional trade capital for the past centuries, the city is nowadays the most impoverished of Lebanon and on the Mediterranean. The city has been scared by the violent clashes and conflict over the past 40 years and is confronted … 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
RE:EDU aims to reinstate the schools in Ukraine which were heavily damaged during the invasion by russia. It suggests a temporary relocation system which can accommodate the students while the schools will be rebuilt for the next 2-5 years. Design The design approach is modular by discretizing typical school typologies in a smaller raster and … 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
Introduction Neri Oxman has described Material Ecology as being at the intersection of Computation Design, Additive Manufacturing, Materials Engineering and Synthetic Biology. It is more than simple biomimicry as the process is collaborative in nature. Her lab focuses on the symbiosis of microorganisms, our bodies, our products and even our buildings. In order to better … 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
