NEXTGEN 1.0

ROBOTICALLY WOUND BASALT FIBER SEAT STRUCTURE Show cased in Lightweight Symposium 2021 Abstract Next Gen 1.0 showcases a new way of producing automotive parts. Our technology used in this seat makes it strong, light, fast for production and replicable, as it is robotically wound. This product becomes sustainable both because of the efficiency in its production, but also because of the inclusion of basalt fiber in its main structure. In order to optimize this seat we made the analyzed to get the areas that needed more support and that can stand most of the tension, in order for the shape and design to react to those needs. From there a design was generated and with it the necessary information for its robotic production.

MAGIC QUEEN

INSTALLATION BASED ON SOIL 3D PRINTING - MAEID Exhibition Venice Architecture Biennale 2021 Venice, Italy May - November 2021 Abstract Magic Queen is a hybrid environment incorporating and fusing biological systems with organic materials and machines, creating an ecosystem of empathy and coexistence. It explores the relationship among natural elements, technology, and living systems favoring the creation of an ecology of non-human subjects. It is a built habitat that can restore and nurture itself, redefining the role of living systems in architecture.It is a performative 3D-printed soil robotic garden. Sensors respond and machine learning creates continuous feedback among sensing, virtualizing, and induced change. Its inhabitable space combines visual, auditory, olfactory, and haptic features to capture the sensual experience of this new, mediated form of nature. Nothing in it could exist without the presence of the other: interconnectivity in biological entities. Fungal flora and soil structure depend on the robot to nurture them; the robot relies on their existence to move. The interconnectivity and performativity of all elements generates ambient sound and a visual interface uncovers the otherwise invisible stream of impact and growth. Team Magic Queen is a project by: MAEID Concept, design and fabrication: Tiziano Derme, Daniela Mitterberger Team: Alex Karaivanov, Noor Khadher, Andrea Cancian, Bahar Al Bahar, Edurne Morales Zúñiga, Rodrigo Perez Hernandez, Andreea Bunica Visual Interface: Andrea Reni AI/sound: Martin Gasser e Lukas Lauermann, Francesco D´Abbraccio, Luca Pagan Role In charge of robotic fabrication development and execution, installation, mesh adaption, robotic path planning for installation and documentation.

RAPID CLAY FORMATIONS RIO DE JANEIRO ROBOTIC WET CLAY CONSTRUCTION - ETH ZURICH Location Rio de Janeiro Brazil Abstract Rapid Clay Formations, the beginning of this process, started in Gramazio Kohler Research as the investigation on the idea of robotically positioning material in space and on the expression of the aggregations of malleable materials. The initial setup consists of a small scale robotic arm that manipulates a tool that allows picking, positioning and placing projectiles by linear pneumatic actuation. Rapid Clay Formations continues with the development on an architectural scale. This development has been carried in different phases: RAPID CLAY FORMATIONS (Rio de Janeiro) Was the first part done by the whole MAS DFAB 19/20 group. Here the tooling, material, general design and fabrication were defined, researched and developed. This pavilion was meant to be built in Rio de Janeiro during the summer of 2020, this got cancelled due to the COVID19 crisis. Nevertheless, we had the possibility of implementing these findings in another ongoing project. Team MAS ETH DFAB 19/20 group: Maria Pia Assaf, Jomana Baddad, Frederic Brisson, Yu-Hung Chiu, Rémy Clemente, Ioulios Georgiou, Mahiro Goto, Anton Johansson, Laszlo Mangliar, Dinorah Martinez Schulte, Edurne Morales Zuniga, Fatemeh Salehi Amiri, Emmanuelle Sallin, Indra Santosa, Eliott Sounigo, Chanon Techathuvanun, Ping-Hsun Tsai Role I was part of the team in charge of fabrication. We developed the workflow, codes, prototypes and defined the constraints of the process. Particularly, I developed and tested the codes for the robot, implemented designs in fabrication of various prototypes, created the computational transformation from the information of the design team and coordinated with the design team in relation to the constraints found.

RAPID CLAY FORMATIONS MASTER THESIS AND PROTOTYPE ROBOTIC WET CLAY CONSTRUCTION - ETH ZURICH

Location Thesis demonstrator: ETH Zürich | Hönggerberg Campus, Zurich Prototype: Brunnen, Schwyz Switzerland Abstract After developing the basics of the process and due to the project in Rio getting cancelled, we decided to focus on unsolved issues and develop further other aspects of the process. Hence, we focused on this topic for our master thesis: ADAPTIVE CLAY FORMATIONS This part of the research included material behaviour and optimisation, design strategies, geometric sensing, robot trajectory planning and mobile robotic localization. We focused on tall single layered structures with the aim of fabricating a wall that was the first large scale prototype for a currently ongoing project. Team Thesis: Anton T Johansson, Edurne Morales. Prototype: Jomana Baddad Anton Johansson, Edurne Morales, Indra Santosa, Eliott Sounigo, Ping-Hsun Tsai Role I was in charge of developing the material mix to ensure improved performance. I also worked in the segmentation stategy that could allow a continous connection, as well as the sensing strategy and its application for the adaption of the computational information. Together we developed the communication with the robot and the localization strategies, implemented and tested with a final prototype. We applied the discoveries in a large scale prototype for an ongoing project, during a 3 week workshop. Here I was in charge of the design based on on our findings, creating the computational files, fabrication data and applying the adaption strategy during construction.

DISCRETE CONCRETE SPINE

DOUBLE CURVED ARCHITECTURAL ELEMENTS FABRICATED WITH EGGSHELL TECHNOLOGY - ETH ZURICH Location ETH Zürich | Hönggerberg Campus, Zurich Switzerland Abstract Inspired by the double curved architecture and the freedom of the eggshell technology (concrete casting with 3D printed plastic fromwork). We decided to design an element that would not be limited by architectural archetypes: where the limit between wall, capital and column dissolve. The shape comes from the idea of a continous nucleous based on a spine. This axis was then split vertically to create the sections and horizontally to connect between the levels. This spine was then extruded to create a continous horizontal area. A post-tentioning cable is meant to connect and reinforce the elements, which are then connected through a male female joint. Team Eliott Sounigo, Lázló Mangliár, Edurne Morales Role We developed the design and the structural strategy; tested to know the constraints, reaction and binding characteristics of the material; created the computational tools and fabrication files; and fabricated the final prototypes to test our findings.

CENTRO PARA EL ADÚLTO MAYOR CAM ELDER’S CENTER Location Tehuacán, Puebla México Abstract This was developed as an elder center for the region of Tehuacán, Puebla, with the aim of tackling the lack of services dedicated to the elder population.

The project included a main center and two satellite centers distributed in different plots of the city. Team Karla Mendívil, Ana Paulina Gallegos, Gloria Dupré, Edurne Morales Role We developed the architectural design and component strategy; investigated for material selection and construction systems; and worked on the implementation strategy in its different sites, as well as a strategy for its replication. Tutor Alejandro García Lara Photography and diagrams Karla Mendívil and myself

Our main focus was to make this easily replicable, low-cost and adaptable through the use of modules, which would satisfy the sanitation, spatial and microclimatic needs of a clinic of this kind.

RETHINKING DALSEONG URBAN RESTORATION PROJECT Location Daegu, Yeongnam South Korea Abstract This project is based on redensifying and making the area of Dalseong Park more attractive by homogenization and organic transformation of the area. The idea of this project is to redensify the area by the inclusion of attractors oriented to culture, adding zones dedicated to local commerce, public green areas and pedestrian areas connecting housing zones. The streets highlight the original and currently peculiar traditional korean trace, created previous to the japanese intervention. This was the place were Daegu city originated, with this in mind we oriented the connections towards the current downtown as a way of merging the present with the past of Dalseong. Team So Jung Kwak, Gyu Seok Ha, Louiza Rkakbi, Edurne Morales Role Together we investigated the past and present of the area, and generated a general concept for the strategy. Then we developed individual strategies, here I show my intervention strategy. Renders and diagrams Louiza Rkakbi and myself
