Algorithmic walls


Above, an image of a previous project of ours, "City of Gestures", an experiment with virtual reconfigurable surfaces through user-interaction. The user changed the shape of surface making movements with a flashlight directed to the screen.
Below, a prototype of an algorithmically designed brick wall, produced with a standart industrial robot during a diploma seminar at the ETH zurich. A lot of parametric design is being practised in schools and by some architects by very few examples are actually built. So it always exciting to see it physically, this one is a striking example of how efficient and rigorous algorithmic-designed surfaces can look.
