WORKSHOP

#LetsFLOCKtogether Learning from master craftspersons // Artisans have perfected traditional techniques in natural material passed down from master to apprentice over generations. Learning these age-old crafts directly from the experts, as well as an understanding of materiality, supply chains and material lifecycles, informs our approach to design exploration in research, pedagogy and fabrication. Working under bamboo fabricators in Vellore, students of vsparcmakes designed and built a series of pavilions during the @fractalsworkshop 15.0: ProtoFolly in 2017. The 10-day workshop resulted in 8 parametric bamboo pavilions placed in the Woodstock forest at @vellore_vit. Happy World Bamboo Day! https://www.instagram.com/p/DLrb2FIOmaI/ #Repost • @tworkshyd We’re excited to launch the DesignAwareness Lab at T-Works, a one-of-a-kind initiative where design meets fabrication! In collab with @designaware and @FractalsWorkshop, this lab program will offer hands-on workshops, prototyping courses, and more to make computational design accessible to all.

Eid Mubarak from BuildAware! Ramadan Mubarak from BuildAware! Eid Mubarak from BuildAware! #RibbonHouse on @archello! We talk about the project, the ideas and the story behind it. This is a multiscalar project, in which we expanded the scope of work beyond the site itself and began to think of the future impact of the design. Happy Teachers’ Day from BuildAware! Checking staircase reinforcement at #RibbonHouse. As the plot is very narrow, every centimeter counts, and it becomes all the more important to follow measurements accurately. The staircase was designed as a folded one to create space underneath for a laundry room. Checking staircase reinforcement at #RibbonHouse.

Everybody’s talking about Hyderabadi #Zaiqa! #Repost • @lux.futurum ✨ PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: ChronoWave ✨ Folding as Fabrication // We believe design should be experiential. We believe design should be experiential. #ChronoWave is a kinetic clock: its spiral form slowly rotates to mark the passage of time. Instead of hands on a dial, the form of the lamp itself becomes the timekeeper.
