Workshop: Material Formations_ 01
Material Formations: The workshop that I was running at ITU will be exhibited and published as a part of the London Festival of Architecture. http://www.nousgallery.com/
About Material Formations:
The workshop consists of 14 student aims that they question the material and form within an integral design strategy. Materials with inherent characteristics are able to perform differently when forces are applied. The intent is designing with a ‘bottom up’ approach where the material performance derive the actual design process, unlike the generic approach where the materialisation take place within a ‘top down’ engineering solution. The aim is to generate the form through the knowledge of the material intelligence within an algorithmic system by investigating the notions such as generative systems, evolutionary design, rule-based design and by formalizing the system structure based on geometric relations & computing. Building elements such as structural system, building skin, floor, roof etc. are re-evaluated, and transformed into a continuous system derived by the material performance. The students investigated the material behaviour & its performance through prototyping processes.

Generative Design Through Coding 01
This research offers to transform double-curved surfaces into components generated through algorithms based on McNeel Rhinoceros scripting platform. The extracted points of surfaces are transferred into a text document which can be manipulated by the user. Rhino script works in two stages, in which first the location of the text document is specified and then the components are applied. The intent is to generate a process, in which computational surface is transformed into a component based model.

Computational Surface Generation
Computational surface generation through the GH interface
f (x) = y * sin (z * x)
This research aims to investigate the generative process of components that belong to a double-curved computational surface, derived through the mathematical curve function f (x) = y* sin (z*x°) applied in two distinct directions. The surface parameters are able to vary and create time-based differentiated formal outputs in a digital parametric system. The parametric system is established through the set of rules and defined relations based on the McNeel Rhinocereos / Grasshopper platform. Geometry optimization becomes the integral part of the design process when the parametric model shifts into the architectural scale. Please visit: http://vimeo.com/user2972824 to watch the animation.
Bi-Stable Structures by Zero.1
The research involved by the use of bi-stable metal (tape spring with convex cross section) that falls in two positions of equilibrium flat or curled. Zero.1 explored the material behavior of Bi-stable Structure: its capacity to deploy time-based boundaries through sequential transformation. Please visit http://www.01para.net/ for more information.
