This is by far the largest prototypical model built in the Inconsistencies series. It was built at Kula Nebojsa in Belgrade in June this year, as a result of the workshop conceived as an integral part of the Design Studio curriculum 1112M5 for 16 students at University of Belgrade. There are several key aspects to this exercise. The model was built in the open air space, to interact with weather conditions over the period of few weeks. Elastic material behavior was a key to construction process. A custom made plug-in was […]
1112M5 Design Studio
Few pics form our study trip to Barcelona in June. The trip was organized for 16 students from University of Belgrade as a part of the Design Studio curriculum 1112M5. We have visited following offices and institutes: MXSI architects www.mx-si.net, MiAS ARCHITECTS www.miasarchitects.com, BAAS www.jordibadia.com, Cloud 9 www.ruiz-geli.com, Carlos Ferrater Partnership (OAB) http://www.officeofarchitectureinbarcelona.com, Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia www.iaac.net and Nabito […]
This project explores landscape formation under the influence of capillary motion – the ability of a liquid substance to flow in narrow spaces without the assistance of external forces including the gravity. Such motion of water occurs naturally when surface and subterranean water fill in tiny cracks of soil. The design intent is to transpose this principle into the formative strategy at another scale, by employing movement of water in creating a network of canals with dual purpose. At first water will rinse the soil of contaminated matter; and subsequently newly created of network canals will become […]
Main idea of the project is forming of the canal which would eventually provide polluted water purification in the bay, restoration of natural flow route of the Danube and creation of the new, green river island – enabling purification of the old and encouraging creation of the new ecosystem. Experimenting with material (styrofoam – its melting deformation while treated with heat in spots), determination of its deformation, researched parameters enabled further conclusions about creating of digital forms with series of their sections (with openings of different intensity and shapes), which eventually gave the final form of […]
The study investigates influence of destructive events in nature such as mudslides, erosions, floods, winds, and rainstorms in order to establish a long-term decontamination strategy for the given site. The aim is to design material processes which will result with the changing landscape under the influence of weather conditions. The design intent is to set the terrain into the motion and thus provide for the natural dissolution of the polluted matter and constitution of the new and sediment layers of land. The proposed strategy obliterates the boundary line between land and water, allowing streams of river water […]
Rad na projektu počinje analizom materijalnih procesa nastanka rečnih ostrva duž čitavog toka Dunava. Zabeleženi su oblici, veličina i položaj ostrva u odnosu na tok i obalu reke. Kao rezultat analize je nastao katalog koji obuhvata 296 ostrva prikazanih prema redosledu od izvora reke Dunav do njenog ušća u Crno more. Rekonfiguracija pejzaža na području Ade Huje predviđena je u analogiji sa meandriranjem, prirodnim procesom formacije terena duž rečnih dolina. Meandar je zavojita linija koja nastaje erozivnim delovanjem vode na zemljište oko korita reke. Prema prirodnim zanima, reka uvek teži da se kreće najkraćim putem, međutim usled promene nivoa vodostaja često dolazi do […]
