Facade Frick Optimizer
manifesto This project focuses on designing manufacturing protocols for integrating CDW-Brick in architectural applications, by programming a geopolymer material system, with controlled porosity and density. The goal is to develop functionally graded elements that respond to building performances (lightweightness, thermal insulation, etc) while acting as decarbonization tools of the building industry. The design process of … Read more
TerraSol
Before creating a whole facade on four faces of a building, we experimented on one wall, parameterizing only the Mesh Vertex Offsets and Perforation Sizes

Shape it, feel it
Working in 3D CAD environments can be restrictive. While most CAD software provides tools for creating shapes and generating ideas, they often rely on a mouse and keyboard, or are very expensive. “Shape it, Feel it” investigates opportunities to generate shapes using a computer’s webcam and hand gestures. We utilize cheap and readily available hardware … Read more

MarSensate: Integrative Modelling
Marsensate is a project based on our Studio course where we explore designing on Mars in order to habit a Marsian colony. The primary goal of our colony was based around Sprituality, to provide a more human environment that appeal to everyone, regardless of their beliefs, genders, preferences, and we focused on the aspect that … Read more
MarSensate: Feeling Human in Space
Project Concept In Marsensate we explore designing on Mars in order to habit a Marsian colony. The primary goal of our colony was based around Sprituality, to provide a more human environment that appeal to everyone, regardless of their beliefs, genders, preferences, and we focused on the aspect that we all have in common, which … Read more
