MINIMAL SIMULATOR

[Form-Finding]

The algorithm allows to generate faithful approximations of minimal surfaces inside a bounding shape .

MORPHIC TOWER

[Generative Design]

The organic morphology is the result of the projection of two cells is a tower compounded by a set of twisted boxes.

EXOSKELTIC BRIDGE

[Form-Finding]

A rigid modular system spreads over a relaxed original mesh. The systems is conceived to install the structure, railing and furniture.

AUTOMATA CHAIR

[Generative Design]

The algorithm organizes an emerging set of voxels in 3D according to the alive-dead states and iterations. Some smoothing techniques gives the final geometry.

FOLDING SHELL

[Generative Design]

This Shell is conceived through form-finding techniques by using Kangaroo. It is possible to have control over its openings according to a solar radiation analysis.

THE SNAKE

[Parametric Design]

Parametric surface paneling based on a pattern that simulates a snakeskin.

HOOF TABLE

[Parametric Design]

1st version: the table supports are generated from simple meshes and using some weavebird SubD techniques to achieve a smooth result.

2nd version: the supports are the result of a topology optmization by using Millipede.
