Phase Change RobArch 2014

Phase Change explores opportunities to overcome tooling limitations in the formation of individualized
thermoplastic building components through the development of a speculative additive manufacturing
technology (AMT). Using automated material deposition, the workshop experimented with the translation of the
rigid ideal of computational design space to the soft reality of an uncertain built environment as mediated by the
industrial robotic work cell. In this case, the industrial robot precisely translates the digital geometry but the final
form is characterized by the … more

Digitally Aided Self‐crystallizing Ice Structures |2.0 Master

Team: Marjan Colletti, Peter Massin, Allison Weiler

Architecture cannot exist without its natural context, and thus should act not as an object in nature, but rather a means of negotiated the boundary between nature and the built environment. „Meeting Nature Halfway“ aims at an architecture sympathetic, linked and codependent on its context. It creates a host for invasive growth as a means of creating a new form of built condition.
Ice is a pervasive force in cold weather regions, and
