Textiles have been used in architecture ever since humankind began to build. Already nomadic tribes have used their tensile strength, flexibility and adaptability to build their first shelters. Nowadays, the development of highly engineered fibers with growing strength-to-weight ratio as well as new production technologies […]

ISOpatterns
The following wooden panels are result of the material-informed design exploration. In this case both panels are fabricated using 3 axis CNC-milling machine in Multiplex pine wood. A doubly-curved surface cuts through different layers of wood and creates linear patterns with various color tones. The […]

Surface articulation through digital design and fabrication tools
Ongoing research on surface articulation using CNC-milling manufacturing processes. Various fabrication strategies are applied to doubly-curves surface geometries in order to increase efficiency of the production and integrate limitations and constraints of the machines into the very early stage of the design process. CASE STUDY_01 Fabrication […]
