The Center for Architecture and Situated Technologies (CAST) investigates the evolving relationship between emerging technologies and the built environment.
This research explores the topological and structural properties of disclinations applied to elastic sheets and suggests their potential at an architectural scale.
The Situated Technologies Pamphlet series aims to explore the implications of ubiquitous computing for architecture and urbanism.
An exhibition of student and faculty research work in responsive materials.
Instructor: Nick Bruscia | Type: Studio
Some composite materials are designed to return to their initial form after deformation by bending or stretching back into position. The studio will explore the scalability of flexible materials, and how we might organize them to produce stable but intentionally flexible architecture.
