Sketches of radiolarianfrom The Voyage of H.M.S. ‘Challenger’ circa 1858. ‘Radiolarians condense their structure according to the flow of forces by controlling the diameter of the individual bubbles intersecting the global sphere in the radiolarian. Bubble clusters with a high amount of small diameter bubbles have a large amount of membrane surface, which finally results […]

eco structure ii
Fig, Banyan, and Mangrove tree species show many possibilities with their aerial root configuration for genetic manipulation, creating sustainable structures from plant species. As our understanding of the human and plant genomes continues, we will gain the ability to manipulate these structures at the genetic level, both during embryonic development and after. As the world’s […]
pigram studio | university of michigan
instructors: David Pigram + Wes Mcgee Proposing an alternative to the singular building as Icon [Sydney’s Opera House or Bilbao’s Guggenhaim as prime examples] this studio asks for the design of a population of smaller public insertions that would define and collectively contribute to Detroit’s public identity. The precedents for this kind of swarm branding […]

archimorph joins the d3 housing tomorrow competition. deadline is january 15, 2010.-JB + JP Each seed is a genetic record, 3.5 billion years of plant evolution contained in the folds of a single embryo. Each stage in the maturation of a plant species marks a state change, a crossing of a threshold prefigured in the […]
archimorph + d3 housing competition
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 12.01
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 […]
gh: porous pavilion
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 […]
