Final thesis of the Architecture course at Faculdade de Arquitectura da Universidade do Porto.
This arch was built in the DFL to showcase the possibilities of 3D printed customized joints. 144 joints were modelled automatically with a custom crafted algorithm and printed on site. The metal plates were laser cut. This work was developed together with Prof. Dr. José Pedro Sousa and João Carvalho. It is feature in this […]
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, […]

This workshop was lectured at Istanbul Technical University. A collaboration between FAUP’s DFL and ITU’s ArfLab, the vault was built with stereotomic rammed earth voussoirs.
This work was the result of my studies at CEAAD – Curso de Estudos Avançados em Arquitectura Digital – organized by ISCTE-IUL and FAUP, and hosted in ISCTE-IUL and VFABLAB in Lisbon in 2013-2013. When approached with a raw material such as expanded cork agglomerate, materiality is a concept that is present from the very […]
