The sketches embark on an architectural exploration of residential buildings, leveraging the capabilities of Midjourney AI. This endeavor seeks to reconceptualize the application of biomaterials such as Mycelium (a special blend of mushroom roots and crop waste, that could grow and self-assemble in 3D-printed PLA molds), transforming it, from a mere structural element, to a […]

This is the proposal for the international design competition Winter Stations 2019 and its theme Migration. The design explores the concept of migration from a physical point of view, understanding this as the change in position of an object over time which could be drawn as the traces left behind by the entity or object in motion. The […]

Our proposed Collider Activity Center is generated in a hexagonal forcefield from which park and buildings emerge as a result of requisite collisions between program activities. Project morphology is continually expanding and contracting in catalyzing the various hosted activities: it enables convergence at the Center Hall attractor point and subsequent expansion toward park and landscape. […]
The facade of this residential building was generated from the system designed in Smart Geometry in SF 2009. It consists of the integration of a growth algorithm with different variables and the application of external forces as driving factors in the generation of the overall form. The initial geometry of this project was generated in […]
