-A bus shelter concept exploring a structural system composed of extruded polystyrene struts and nodes wrapped in carbon fiber. As members experience less compressive strengths, the tubular struts become hollow. The design explores the use of a light-weight shelter with quick installation time.

Fabrication photographs of Zip Ceiling. The photos displayed are the initial beginnings, 1000 zip ties, for a much larger ceiling topology.

-‘As part of the research for the Princeton Envelope Group, this envelope was developed in pursuit of an envelope as atmosphere. As opposed to con sid er ing the enve lope as a her­metic seal, this facade breaths, conditions, and cleans. This specific prototype is for the American Apparel factory build ing in Los Angeles. […]

the ‘wave pavilion’ by macdowell.tomova acts as both a pragmatic and conceptual testing ground, leveraging scripting and advanced digital fabrication toward the expansion of disciplinary modes of design and construction. the pavilion operates as a piece of landscape furniture, an occupiable space of gathering and leisure. set on the grounds of the university of michigan, […]

IN VITRO MEAT HABITAT Credits: Mitchell Joachim, Eric Tan, Oliver Medvedik, Maria Aiolova. This is an architectural proposal for the fabrication of 3D printed extruded pig cells to form real organic dwellings. It is intended to be a “victimless shelter”, because no sentient being was harmed in the laboratory growth of the skin. We used […]
