Design Solution The proposed solution is set on a 3m x 3m x 3m grid system for … Read more
Introduction As of 2021, the city of Barcelona has around 3.8 million vehicles (from cars to buses, cars, vans, etc.) circulating on its streets. Despite the efforts of the city council to better balance the motor urban mobility with the pedestrian flow throughout an urbanism model that puts people at the center, street accidents continue … Read more
Introduction This project is a short visual story, trying to portray the opportunities and problematics of poor landscapes. It quickly touches upon a little fragment of precision farming- natural vegetation index (ndvi)- that focuses on plant health estimation remotely, from satellite. Ndvi has become the most commonly used vegetation index in remote sensing, especially with … Read more
Ruled surfaces are a way to address both simplicity in terms of design rules and at the same time complexity in terms of the outcome. In this workshop we aimed at defining design rules which are performance driven, to obtain modular geometries. Through parametrization and manipulation of computational workflows we generated paths and mapped them … Read more
Set on an old train station site at the heart of Damascus, one that previously linked the Old and New city together, we are proposing a market that revives the site of the Hijaz and bridges the two sides of the city back together. The project consists of a system of modules that aggregate together … Read more
Structural analysis and optimisation Our project is a timber grid shell which forms a roof canopy covering an underground train station in Sydney, Australia. The shell acts as a climatic roof providing shade and creating a cool public square below. The timber shell forms funnel columns that land in the station below the public square, … Read more
The annual construction waste is expected to reach 2.2 billion tons gobally by 2025, to try to solve this kind of problems in this sector we can use the Additive Manufacturing fot the optimization of Fabrication and construction. Key advantages of AM By 2020, the AM sector will grow up to a €13.4 billion industry … Read more
This project aims to explore the possibilities of mapping global scale data onto an 3D globe – in this case the CO2 emissions per country in Megatons. The project reveals the five biggest contributors to CO2 Emissions in 2019 – China, USA, Russia, Indian & Japan and also shows how little CO2 is emitted by … 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
Located in northeastern Spain, on the shores of the Mediterranean, Barcelona has long been hailed as a European cultural capital. From its thriving art scene to its incredible architecture and world-famous gastronomy, here’s why an art and culture lover will fall head over heels for Barcelona. The intent of the whole project is to identify … Read more
Public spaces in the city of Barcelona play a vital role in the daily lives of its citizens. But often there is a clear boundary seen between the urban and the peri-urban forests of the city. The project approaches the site of Font Del Gos as a transitory space between the city of Barcelona and … 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
