Paraísos artificiales

Hacia un modelo territorial para ciudades balnearias La tesis propone explorar el turismo en la Costa Este del Uruguay, con énfasis en las franjas litorales de los departamentos de Canelones y Maldonado. Aquí, el turismo no es entendido únicamente como una actividad económica o cultural, sino como una infraestructura compleja que incide sobre el territorio: … Read more

WORKSHOP 3.2 _ REFLECTION

“Precision becomes poetry through reflection and sound.” Reflection is an immersive installation that explores the potential of precision and reflection between two robotic arms through synchronized movements. Equipped with mirrors, the robots become both instruments and performers. Concept: The law of reflection The law of reflection states that the angle of incidence is equal to … Read more

The Echoes We Buried

Construction fractured an ecosystem, and listening began to heal it The Echoes We Buried is a speculative eco-fiction set in a fractured Barcelona, where construction noise disrupts not just human life but the deep, vibrating language of ecosystems. As species falter and signals blur, one person begins to listen—to the pressure, the silence, the unraveling. … Read more

Evolving Architecture: Genetic Optimization of a Pavilion through Solar Analysis

Project by Saad Khan and Sai Mohan Satwik Introduction- Evolution In nature, evolution is the quiet engineer — iterating lifeforms through adaptation, selection, and mutation to thrive in ever-changing environments. From the spiral of a seashell to the branching of trees, nature doesn’t design — it evolves. Inspired by this process, computational design tools now … Read more

Synthome

This object functions as a sculptural lamp, where the complex lattice of organic openings serves both an aesthetic and functional role. The irregular perforations allow light to escape in unpredictable and dynamic patterns, casting intricate shadows and gradients onto surrounding surfaces. As light passes through the varying densities and scales of the geometry, it diffuses … Read more

Interlock Tower

Rethinking Towe Typology with AI: This project explores the redesign of contemporary tower structures using machine learning (ML), challenging the repetitive, profit-driven design seen in cities like Hong Kong. The goal is to discover new typologies through AI and stacking rules, and tren translate them to a robotic fabrication system (pick and place). AI-generated towers … Read more

Creative Workflow Customization in BIM

Leveraging Advanced BIM Strategies for Complex Architectural Realization Contextual Framework – Traditional BIM workflows often struggle to accommodate the complex, fluid geometries characteristic of avant-garde architectural designs, creating a gap between conceptual vision and buildable reality. Key Insight – Customized BIM workflows incorporating AI, computational design, and bespoke coding can enable the realization of complex … Read more

Sticks & Stones: Precision in Robotic Fabrication with Traditional Materials

In an era dominated by concrete and steel, the Sticks & Stones project revisits the architectural potential of stone and timber—materials with a rich historical legacy—through the precision of robotic fabrication. This initiative sought to develop a reversible, precise architectural system that bridges traditional craftsmanship with advanced digital tools. By tackling the challenges of natural … Read more
