VRF - Heating and Cooling 1. The BC Controller is the technological heart of the CITY MULTI R2-/WR2-Series. It works in unison with the outdoor unit to provide simultaneous cooling and heating, something no other two-pipe system can do.

2. THE PCFY (fanbox) is a ceilingsuspended indoor unit. It is available in capacities of 15,000, 24,000, 30,000 and 36,000 Btu/h. 3. 2 way 1”diameter Ducts, (heating + cooling) 4. 2” diameter Supply Piping 5. The R2-Series simultaneously cools

and heats different zones within a building to provide energy-saving, heatrecovery operation through the use of the BC Controller.

Human Recognition

Haptic[Field] Haptic Field is an interactive environment between a user and a field around them. The code generates a series of white mesh of dots around the user that can be perceived as a haptic field. The user can interact with this field using their hands using the body identifying code. When the user get to a certain distance to the field, a haptic response of green dots are displayed.

1950 1950: Epoxies 1951: Polyesters

The applications for epoxy-based materials are extensive and include coatings, adhesives and composite materials such as those using carbon fiber and fiberglass reinforcements (although polyester, vinyl ester, and other thermosetting resins are also used for glass-reinforced plastic).

Plastics are high-performance materials with very different properties and can be found in the world around us in many different forms and applications. One of the areas where plastics are used is architecture. Building with plastics is an experimental and highly interesting specialist area of architecture. The first generation of building materials were found: stone, wood, animal skin, mud, dung and ice. Architecture was a matter of cutting, stacking, stretching, weaving, pressing, ounding, smoothing, drying, and tying. The next materials were made or more precicely, cooked: concrete, metal , and glass.. New physical properties were engineered with heat in factories. We were asked to design a tubes, temporary Finally, with plastic, it is all chemistry. Born in test plastic is the quintissential twentieth-century material. pavilion for a Texas Tech tailgate.

These include, for example, polyvynle chloride (PVC), placement, installation process, material polymethacrylate (PMMA), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene (PE), polyurethane (PURE), and and transport. It was to be designed polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). with grasshopper so that it could be integrated into the robot arm for automated customized construction.

The focus of this project was to redfine an urban open space through the use of landscaping, material, levels ect. With the framework of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Event Spaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; the design challenge is to design a cohesive space that activates and connects the people to the space.

In this project we took a vacant building in downtown lubbock, and reprogramed it for mixed use; residential and a Fresh produce market on the ground floor. Also adapting a mesh metal skin that wraps the building at the same time letting the life in the building wrap it.

Pleated Loft

waVe : The objective of this surface is to create a complex curvature out of many ‘straight’ curves in either the X or Y direction. The composition is based on 3 folds that are lifted at 3 separate edges of the grid. These all Meet in the middle making a ‘v’ which is an diagonal direction fold. Then the surface is pleated by a dramatized modification of 2 folds.
