Smart Geometry Conference 2010 | Barcelona

Exploration of housing typologies reveals vast potential for overlaying urban, contextual, cultural, social, and life cycle flows toward determining new architectonic strategies for living in the future. The d3 Housing Tomorrow Competition invites architects, designers, engineers, and students to collectively explore, document, analyze, transform, and deploy innovative approaches to residential urbanism, architecture, interiors, and designed […]

Huron Synergy. As the boundaries of our ever expanding megalopoleis blur the lines which defines perimeter, landscapes of complex ecologies disappear before our eyes, pushing the boundary further into itself doomed for collapse. Detroit Michigan is in an economic crisis, and as its inhabitants leave the city at an alarming rate, the constructed perimeter begins […]

Comprised of a range of 12-tetrahedral modules, each module aggregated onto the surface of the pavillion has the ability to scale itself to one half of its origional size through a system of struts and actuators. At the midpoint of the vertices, the struts collapse and are able to scale towards the centerpoint at which […]

these three videos set the discourse for the current building methadology within this latest project, whereby emergent properties arise through the interaction of singular building agents. how can these systems be implemented within the built environment at the scale of an architural proposal? material sciences must look towards biological designs, rather than nineteenth century methods–technology […]

the archimorph website [http://www.archimorph.com] is currently undergoing some updates and should be back up shortly. once the new website takes effect, an added video tutorials page will also be available for grasshopper, panelling tools, and 3ds max.

an image from a parametric model which tracks solar position to maximize algal bloom cultivation within a module. at this stage of the design, the modules are populated across the entire surface, but the next iteration will allow other external influences (information from program, context, and climate) to effect the surface and distribution of the […]
