RE_SHAPE

Digital  Transformation  of  Discarded  Logs  for  Structural  and  Design  Applications Re_Shape is a design and innovation project that addresses a major blind spot in the forestry industry: the waste of tree trunks that are curved, bifurcated, or otherwise irregular and therefore excluded from traditional processing systems. These logs are typically downgraded into low-value products like … Read more

Form follows Data

Introduction Facades are vital architectural elements, functioning as the interface between a building’s interior and exterior while reflecting broader design strategies. Vitruvius emphasized the concept of Venustas, the aesthetic appeal achieved through harmonious proportions and calculated symmetries, as central to the role of facades in conveying beauty and balance. In modern architecture, facades transcend their … Read more

Tensegrate

Computation Design Seminar-Term II The project envisions a dynamic tensile structure on a terrace, integrating tensegrity to create a lightweight yet structurally efficient space for public interaction. Designed as a multifunctional hub, the pavilion provides a space for relaxation, lunch breaks, social gatherings, and contemplation.  By leveraging computational design tools such as Kangaroo, we explore … Read more

Solaris

Pavilion at Plaça del Sol, Barcelona Solaris at Plaza del Sol is a dynamic structure that integrates with its urban pedestrian surroundings. Inspired by organic growth patterns, the pavilion’s perforated shell creates a play of light and shadow, fostering an ever-changing spatial experience. The flowing form provides both shade and ventilation, enhancing comfort within the … Read more

Ethereal Bloom

The Ethereal Bloom Pavilion embodies fluidity and lightness, mimicking organic structures found in nature. The twisted lattice frame, already developed through a parametric script, acts as the primary structural element. The spaces between the frame are filled with inflatable ETFE panels, which are designed to respond to air pressure forces and achieve a soft, billowing … Read more

Luzarca

A Fluid Dialogue Between Light, Space, and Movement. Luzarca is a lightweight architectural pavilion that merges computational design, structural efficiency, and urban interaction. Its undulating mesh canopy creates a dynamic play of light and shadow, shifting throughout the day. Designed for modularity, it is easily assembled, disassembled, and relocated, emphasizing sustainability. The pavilion fosters movement … Read more

Sant Felip Neri Pavilion

Master in Advanced Architecture Computational Design Seminar Yetkin Demir / Giovanny Gordillo SITE Placa De Sant Felip Neri is a small square located in the Gothic quarter. Bearing scars from the Spanish Civil War in 1938, this plaza holds a tragic past. Surrounded by the church and mixed use buildings, this square serves as a … Read more

KOMA

can robots and humans work hand in (hand) to create beautiful architecture? KOMA is a contemplative space, designed to be set in the landscape and allow for peaceful viewing, the form of KOMA is parametric and is able to sway with the wind through the use of tensile cables. The vertical timber elements were placed … Read more

COLOCHO

Drawing inspiration from the Central American term “colocho” meaning curl or loop, we developed a robotic printed clay column, while experimenting with non-uniform extrusions. In this seminar we explored the geometric possibilities that can be created with the incorporation of non-uniform rotations and movements in the robot while printing with clay. At the same time, … Read more

AiR

AiR is an Augmented Reality (AR) interface designed for creation of temporary fabric structures with a wooden framework. AiR enhances your design experience by scanning the site and offering a catalog of structures tailored for shading, resting, or playing. With real-time AR visualization, you can preview your chosen designwithin the environment before assembling it. The … Read more

FAB-ARmour

FAB-ARmour is an augmented reality (AR) design system focused on artistic production and the development of body extensions (arms, shoulders, core). By using Grasshopper with the Culebra plugin, the project generates agent-based geometries that adapt to non-linear surfaces, creating complex digital structures. These designs are integrated into Unity AR, allowing for real-time visualization and iterative … Read more
