[non-standard] Mass Timber Architecture “Technology is the answer, but what was the question?” — Cedric Price, 1966. Description This studio focused on ecological construction to explore the potential of mass timber technologies to address new and growing climate...
Introduction to Cognitive Design and Fabrication “The manifest form—that which appears—is the result of a computational interaction between internal rules and external (morphogenetic) pressures that, themselves, originate in other adjacent forms (ecology). The...
Wood Proto-architecture III: Integrating Design Computation and Materialization “It is a question of surrendering to the wood, then following where it leads by connecting operations to a materiality, instead of imposing a form upon a matter.” — Gilles Deleuze and...
Behavioral Robotic Fabrication “A system is “soft” when it is flexible, adaptable, and evolving, when it is complex and maintained by a dense network of active information or feedback loops, or, put in a more general way, when a system is able to sustain a certain...
