Underlying Program Goals:

// lead students in HANDS-ON construction combined with a design studio education in order to discover new intersections between design and fabrication.


// foster a COLLABORATIVE studio environment such that students engage more fully in a dialogue with their peers, practitioners, context and communities.


// implement architecture, design and the making of space to catalyze POSITIVE SOCIAL CHANGE and stewardship of our built environment.

first set of experiments

first set of tensile experiment using the all-thread frame. in the initial process, we are looking at free-form iterations; however, we will quickly need to develop a rigor for evaluating our studies by isolating variables.

to consider:
_saddle variants
_add'l exterior attachment points
_add'l interior attachment points
_internal ring (cone)
_apertures
