Presentation in the Digital Darq event. Showcase of personal research on cork stereotomies.
A renewed interest in stereotomy, narrowly entwined with digital technologies, has allowed for the recovery and proposal of new techniques and expressions in this building approach. A new classification scheme for stereotomy research allows for the framing of various aspects related to this discipline, including a newly developed fabrication system specially tailored for the wedge-shaped […]
The Faculty of Architecture of the University of Porto (FAUP) opens a call for 1 (one) Research Grant (BI), within the scope of the project “Stereotomic BIM – Exploring sustainable design and construction in structural stone” (Ref. 2023.15500.PEX), funded by FCT, I.P. – Foundation for Science and Technology, I.P. through national funds, underway at the […]
Publication and communication of article “Genetic Algorithms in Architecture – History and Relevance”. Lecture in April 2013
At the 4000 Ateliers event, along with AZVAvisuals, Espaço2D organized its first workshop focused on the visualization of architecture. Following the work developed in the professional activity, the software used was Blender, an opensource 3D animation tool, with characteristics similar to 3ds Max or Maya. The aim of the workshop was the introduction to Blender, […]
Between the geological earth and the rubble turned ground, architecture happens. It is in the cycles that happen between those two moments that the Flying Earth proposal is developed. Addressing the Trienalle challenges, it explores how the Earth’s most sourceable matter may provide the human being with an infinitely available and carbon-free material, contributing to […]
WORKYOURFOLIO – PORTFOLIO DESIGN WORKSHOP Pedro Guinapo, Arq. ULHT | Pedro de Azambuja Varela, Arq. FAUP O portfolio design workshop é desenhado para auxiliar os participantes a navegar nos aspectos conceptuais e práticos da montagem de um portfolio. O workshop irá expor um conjunto de estratégias à organização do portfolio desde a preparação do seu […]
A reusable mold methodology to the production of customized voussoirs using HoloLens Mass customizing of building components allows new conditions to explore aesthetic and sustainability in architecture. However, such possibilities tend to require the use of expensive and heavy digital fabrication machinery, which is mostly available in the most regions on the planet. In this […]
The School of Architecture of Aarhus organizes the HARD CO(u)R(s)E DIGITAL, a set of workshops focused in digital technologies in a pre-holiday format. The key factors in the CorkVault workshop were the use of ICB (Insulation Cork Board), a 5-axis waterjet cutter and Kangaroo along with Grasshopper, so that a full-scale pavillion could be built. […]
