Parametrics

In honor of our fair competitors who challenged us to deliver our best results possible – an homage to your final design as well! Well done!

This has been a great class and I would like to thank my amazingly hard working team for all your efforts, companionship and cooperation! 30 hours of assembly…

Do_Nuts

is a parametric free hanging intervention that creates a semi enclosed space with its net-like center. The shape was conceived by connecting two differently sized rings. Physics simulations were applied to identify how the connections would drape in real life. Through iterative prototyping, several hundred panels were cut and assembled that could not only support each other when linked but can also be printed flat on a laser cutter bed.
