Composite skeleton, Tallinn, 2015 : Composite Skeleton is a composite fibre prototype developed for the Talliin Architecture Biennale and exhibited in Estonia. The translucent skin of the prototype is 0.25mm thick and provides the shear strength of the project, while the black skeleton is 2mm thick.

This project was supported by: RMIT University School of Architecture and Design and the Tallinn Architecture Biennale. The prototype was designed by Kokkugia and fabricated by students within the RMIT studio 'Composite Pavilion' taught by Roland Snooks and Cam Newnham

Meeting pavilion, Melbourne, 2015 :

This Meeting Pavilion was space for discussion and debate. Not a neutral space, but one that is rich in crafted detail. The exterior shell will be fabricated from fibre-composite materials creating a depth and subtle translucency, with the interior lined in quilted fabric.

The robot platform provides a new possibility for the development and implementation of 3D printing technology and mold makings for sculpture and installation, which makes the feasibility of applying 3D printing technology to the product design, both on a scale and a complex system. The same can be implemented into more feasible by hybrid Manufacturing.
