ARCHITECT/ “Hosoya Schaefer Architects”, Zurich 2013 Responsibilities: Masterplan design, 3D Modeling Program: 48 acres, Competition to develop basic urban planning with a residential focus
The former Bayern headquarters in the district of Schwabing-Freimann is one of the last large areas protected and owned by the city of Munich. The purpose of this competition is the development of the urban planning concept for innovative town with diverse mix of uses, nature and good life and recreational values. The green space, adjacent structures and general pedestrian and bicycle connections should be networked and barriers should be eliminated. Special emphasis is placed on the development of a sustainable urban neighborhood with a sustainable energy strategy to optimize consumption and reduce energy demand and waste. It should also take into account the socio-cultural, environmental and economic aspects of sustainable urban development in the planning.

The Strategic Masterplan of Perm proposed by KCAPArchitects&Planners gives a comprehensive incentive to the future development of Perm. Block 179 is a headliner of Perm development project. The proposal is based on the network of historical streets and the existing green structure, but relies on a new cluster system and housing typology set, according the Strategy Masterplan. As a result we achieved a structure which perfectly fit into the existing city fabric, but more disperse and socially open. This project was a very interesting personal experience to work in accordance with latest urban strategic trends and deal with expectations of the Russian customers regards to high quality housing. web:http://ostarch.ru/main/ projects?id=33analis of historical streets, anomaly urban situation

The project of the 30ha neighborhood for 10 000 residents. 5 living platform units are connected with each other by a water reservoir and bridges. Every block has a different functional significance: agriculture, energy, water or waste collection, transportation. Platforms have the shape of a hill. This form gives an opportunity to create artificial landscape and connection/intersection between lands and roofs of the houses, which increased land use possibilities.

Status:
Construction in progress
Vidnoe is one of the satellite towns of Moscow, which develops dynamically by building up new residential complexes. The HOUSING ESTATE built in a rural area and supposed to become an important node in the new urban structure. Urban plan for the housing, for commercial, community and care facilities turned into an urban ensemble. I was working in the team of architects and engineers and for the most part was responsible for the detailed development of the general layout, preparation of documents for engineers, presentation material and physical 3D printed models. web http:// ostarch.ru/main/projects?id=49#

Block City A101 is a Competition for “New Moscow” agglomeration guided by Next Architects bureau + KCAPArchitects&Planners (The Netherlands). We proposed the formation of a new social environment, comfortable and safe for living, active and dynamic for work and leisure, without destroying borders between public and private, but diffusing them, making the space more friendly and harmless. We gave control over the shaping and management of the public function to the residents. We created the buffer zone, like the “grey area” in the Japanese philosophy: between white and black there is a unlimited area of grey hue.

300 m2 of education and recreation pavilion
Achievement:
Exhibition at Moscow Architectural Biennale 2011
The project designed for the second round of ‘The Best Young Russian Architect’ Contest. The assignment asked to propose a Reading Pavilion as a place for recreation near the student campus, in the immediate vicinity to nature. The project designed for the second round of ‘The Best Young Russian Architect’ Contest. The assignment for Reading Pavilion as a place for recreation near the student campus, in the immediate vicinity to nature. The pavilion is made of two structures: the first one is outdoor simple parallelepiped: aluminum framing and glass, under which hidden the second complex wooden sculpture structure. The base of the building is buried 74mm down in the ground, which makes the height of a table. It visually reduces the height of the whole building and allows to fit the pavilion more smoothly into the landscape. The wooden structure of the pavilion makes 150 individual reading units. Each unit is equipped with a folding table and a chair. The interior is mobile and can adapt to different events, such a an exhibition, a lecture or an examination.

Interior design for a new Russian fashion brand Pret-a-Porter. As this brand is new and this is their first store, it was not just an interior design project, but also invention of a correct brand style. The idea was to combine Russian and French classic interior with modern clean lighting, colour, and sense of humor. We worked in detail on furniture design and gypsum wall decoration. Project was implemented in the shortest possible time: all process, from concept to official opening, took one month.

Brickolage is an experiment on programing and building one:one scale pavilion out of Yutong aerated concrete bricks. The design of the pavilion based on the reaction diffusion algorithm and adapted according to structural analysis and Kuka’s cutting accessibility. The brick pattern is distributed on the object surface using Grasshopper software. Masonry is made from over 800 custom-shaped and Kuka’s cut bricks. Such large amount of individual pieces required the development of a special logistic system and the production cycle of assemblage. video:http://vimeo.com/54448593

MAGICA LAMP/ Programing and Fabrication
STUDENT WORK / IaaC, Barcelona 2010 Tutor:
Luis E. Fraguada
Collaboration: Gopal Garg Tool:
RhinoCeros, RhinoCeros Script, 3D printer
The lamp prototype was fabricated by 3D printed as a three-dimensional solid object through a sequential layering process. The fabrication goal of rapid prototypical was to 3D print an object and test material potentials, in particular the frangible limit of walls. The pattern investigation goal was the test of deformation abilities: reaction to attraction points or curves, various cells curvatures deformation and extrusion according some parameters. With the aid of Monkey PlugIn for RhinoCeros the range of digital forms were tested in real time.

SWISS TOWER+ Programing
step 1- Raw Data: arrange a collection of villages, maps and statistic gathering, Database template
Swiss Collage #3
STUDENT WORK / ETH CAAD ZURICH 2011 Tutor: Tool:
Benjamin Dillenburger Java Script, MySQL Data Base
step 2- Clean Data: coding information of urban attributes (area, land use, density) into graphical parameters
Swiss Tower + is a symbol of rich diversity of Swiss villages, multiplicity of attributes and high standard of living. Also, “Swiss Tower +” is an analytic tool and Information Library. Tower “shaped” by Data of 20 Swiss villages. Urban attributes, such as density, population, area, land use, are coded into graphical parameters. By database source the control of information is achieved. Data is projected into single space and can be rearranged according the asked question. Interactive visualization of interface is designed for better understanding of urban spacial analysis. The unit of Tower is not metrical any longer, but bits of information behind the objects. video:https:// vimeo.com/62009461 step 3- Data visualization:

step 5: decoding into new shapes

MASTER THESIS ETH CAAD ZURICH 2011 Supervisor :

Prof. Ludger Hovestadt
Programing support : Benjamin Dillenburger, Jorge Orozco
Thesis was published in a book of Ludger Hovestadt and Vera Bühlmann as one of the exemplary projects by CAAD ETH postgraduate students.
In the contemporary urban condition, we are confronted with an indefinite multitude of space, each one piled upon, or perhaps contained within the next: geographical, economic, demographic, sociological, ecological, political, national, global. Does the empowering of technical generalization, which we are facing today, keep any potential next to its sheer productivity? Is there a “cultural” fertility proper to the generic masses that spring from the grounds all around the globe? Those questions are raised in the chapters of this work. Besides written material, work contains collages, which were generated by using “urban artefacts library”. Collages re-encoded into abstract arrangements which shows other urban artefacts interrelations. In deferent acts of storytelling it zooms in from theoretical abstract notions to the level of specific cities and urban artefacts. http://www.caad.arch.ethz.ch/blog/new-caadbook-out-now-eigenarchitecture-computability-asliteracy/
