This was a project realized during a two-week workshop that focused in the exploration of form finding techniques with the use of Maya. My goal was to create a family of objects-organisms, “mutations� of a basic unit, and use them as columns floors slabs and walls to create a new vocabulary of space. Using a simple cube i tried by deforming it and using it as an exoskeleton for an organism to grow in it to give my system the flexibility to perform in different scenarios. Scenarios like connections to the ground, connections between boxes, boxes with grown organism, scenarios that would allow this system to behave like an organism, grow, decay, balance, fail and grow again in an seemingly endless cycle of life and death.

Our goal was to create a luxury Hotel that would fuse elements of Mexican architectural culture and modern day hotel architecture. The site’s location on a popular city’s square amongst historical buildings dictated the employment of geometry and materials that kept the homogeneity of the area intact. Thus we decided to utilize a facade that filters natural elements (sun and wind), in a way acting as an insulator between the hotel’s rooms and the environment and in the same time offering a unified “calm” image for the building. The pattern used for the facade is an aperiodic “L” tilling made of yellow stone components. In the night, as lights are turned on and off, colors are projected on the stone pattern in ever changing combinations, creating spectacular views of the building. Lights that give away the organization of the building’s interior, different room typologies, windows, balconies, circulation and different colors.

The interior was conceived as warm and welcoming with colors and art inspired by Mexican culture. In fact we decided to “submerge” the ground floor one meter below street level, giving a cave like feeling of security and warmth to the reception, the lobby, the bar and the restaurant. In the same time with the use of large, continuous glass surfaces we tried to open the ground floor to the public, creating a brighter and welcoming environment for visitors and customers. For the reception we devised a wooden sculpture, a surface that runs on the ceiling, comes down to the floor and houses the front desk and the bar and in the same time conceals ventilation and lightning throughout its length. Levels one to five house single and double rooms, while levels six and seven the eight suites. Room’s interiors are colorfully decorated and with large openings. The exterior facade of the building stands at a sixty cm distance of the windows and gives each room privacy and unique atmosphere without blocking the view to the city and the environment. On the rooftop we placed a large swimming pool, a bar and a roof garden for customers to relax and enjoy the view to the city of Guadalajara. All we pushed for was the creation of a building that would blend in its environment and give clients the chance to experience a luxurious 4-star hotel while retaining an aroma of Mexico and Mexican culture.

Apartments on Slope
Professional project july 2010
On this project we were called as an office to design an apartments’ complex in a rather small plot on a slope. The idea was to keep the four units as seperated as possible and in the same time give an hint about the unity of the design. In that thinking four different units were developed based on the slope of the plot, on the orientation and the dominant views. Each unit has 2 floors and private exterior spaces offering at each appartment different views and in the same time different levels of privacy. The land scape has been formed in order to offer big balconies to the site and in the same time hide the parking spaces. The roof that connects the four apartments unifies the comples into one single volume that resembles a deformed house.

3d-Printing Joints
Academic
project December 2011
We wanted to create a set of joints that would allow our structure to expand and shrink, move in every axis and in the same time be able to connect with another module so it can be populated and create a dynamic surface. The geometry we used is based on two hexagons, one nested into the other connected only in three points. The inside hexagon can vary the length of its sides and the angles between them while moving in every direction when the outside can only vary the angles between the sides. The assembly can be tiled in two dimensions and can possibly create a lightning system or a performing faรงade.

In this Project we were called to interpret the idea of the superblock in the area of the northern part of Passeig San Joan. In the superblock idea the whole city is transformed by injecting in the city’s fabric islands where cars are left out and the space is dedicated to the citizens. In our interpretation of the superblock and after examining the uses and the existing situation we realized that the area of intervention was already functioning very well and the pedestrian that passes through adds a lot to the aroma of the area. Though when we examined the consumption and waste production numbers of our area we realized that we faced a problem that most of the buildings, cities and architecture face in our days, that of sustainability. We then soon became aware of the fact that however we try to produce energy, be it solar or wind or even thermal, our energy needs will always exceed the have. So we need to shift our focus from producing more to using less, and this can be done with the help, we though, of architecture, with providing examples of reuse and sustainability in the city, available to the citizens for interaction, simple systems that would increase the awareness of energy and its use.

Having these in mind we designed an infrastructure that purifies water from the surrounding buildings with the use of plants and algae and in the same time we introduce a layer of facilities that can be activated by the citizens by providing energy. Facilities such as speakers projectors, lighting systems and screens. In addition to that a system of moving structures, (acting as batteries that can power up these facities) is spread around the area by the people according to their needs, in order to stimulate events and in the same time gather energy. These mobile batteries gather energy when people step on them (piezoelectric energy) and when they are full they can be used to power the infrastructure embedded in the green walls to evoke activities that people themselves organize. In that way we try to make people more conscious to energy and its production and consumption. It is a form of education that playing and participation provides.

The Co-ordinate Panel was designed following the principles of the robotic forming processes, implemented by the RoboFold team. Being inspired by new technology in manufacture and design, it was conceived the first day of the workshop and developed till the last day of it. The project was first presented in a draft paper model, then its folding process was simulated using Kangaroo plug-in in Grasshopper. Finally the last day a 1:1 scale model of an array of the panels was built. It is composed of two identical parts which have three different fixing positions, offering 3 different spatial arrangments. This allows a variety of sizes for the panel and a variety of light’s penetration. Summing up , this versatile size leads to a more flexible approach to facade’s design.

“Fun Palace”
workshop March 2012
A machinic architecture with an underspecified material, spatial, performative and programmatic goal, able to evolve in real-time within the IAAC post-industrial void. The void is filled with trajectories, densities, intensities and processes; it is converted into a new systemic “FUN PALACE”. The workshop operates as a machinic protocol for the syntetisis of the PALACE whose “rooms” coagulate from raw materials, organisational principles, individual experience as well as group coordination, all in real-time. The construction process runs as a cultivation experiment, rigorously in 1:1, from digital diagrams to prototyping and installation. Loop after loop the protocol will unfold non-stop in a marathon lasting 3 days and involving 5 groups of 6-7 students each, working on shifts for a total of 891 man*hours of cultivation. Relentless manufacturing, layering, testing, playing, discussing [with readings of Cedric Price’s original Fun Palace], resting and back again another loop, another group breeding new material articulation and programmatic differentiation. No undoing is possible, only more overlaying, incorporation, negotiation with what is already there.

Robotic Sand Forming
Workshop June 2012
The purpose of Sand Forming workshop was to explore the potential of using granular materials to produce reusable molds for building elements in concrete. The 4-day workshop covered a variety of matters including basic scripting strategies in Rhino.Python, extensive tooling and prototyping. The application and final modeling would be controlled through an industrial robot, to guarantee sufficient precision and repeatability of the process. At the same time, the research would investigate the relation between design and its application in architecture. Through manual experiments in soil, the workshop focused initially in developing the proper manipulation tool to achieve the desirable design outcome. After a series of trials with simple and more complicated tools, a nozzle based on a simple cubic geometry was developed and used to get sample patterns in clay. The chosen design was then created and tested in Python. The software would give a full overview of the panel pattern and by simulating the process give feedback about possible machinic limitations. The created geometrical code was used by a Kuka robot that reproduced the digital design in clay. The final panels were created by purring concrete on the formed mold.This novel method for fabrication enabled the production of uniquely customized prototypes with complex geometries, minimizing the waste that is normally used for formwork.
