Membrane Coherency and Variation

Membrane Coherency and Variation The spatial logic behind the system was based on a simple rule, which we called here “coherency”. Controlling the input cutting pattern and application points for tension made it possible to determine the output geometry,...

Deichmanske Media Stations

Deichmanske Media Stations The Deichmanske Media Stations are a collaborative project between the Academy for Art and Design in Offenbach, the Academy for Architecture and Design in Oslo, and OCEAN NORTH. Under the supervision of Professor Achim Menges und Professor...

Macro Fibres

Macro Fibres This project focused on the development of a generic shape- and fibre path-finding method for tow-steered composite structures by implementing the dynamic process of ‘adaptive growth’. Informing the design process by concepts such as adaptive response and...

Lounge Landscape

Lounge Landscape The Lounge Landscape project was instigated by the universities’ commission to design and manufacture seating furniture for its 175th anniversary celebrations reflecting the school’s design and prototyping expertise. In collaboration with the relevant...

Gathering Components

Gathering Components The Gathering Components project aimed at exploring the performative capacity of topological exactitude found in systems consisting of elements that “find” their position and alignments as an alternative to the geometric precision of highly...

3D Spacer Textile Composites

3D Spacer Textile Composites The 3D Spacer Textile Composites project investigated ways of instrumentalising local form-finding processes to differentiate continuous 3D textile glass fibre composite surfaces. Form-finding is a design technique that utilises the...
