Research
Disclinations in Self-Reactive Surfaces
This research explores the topological and structural properties of disclinations applied to elastic sheets and suggests their potential at an architectural scale.
Publications
Situated Technologies Pamphlets
The Situated Technologies Pamphlet series aims to explore the implications of ubiquitous computing for architecture and urbanism.
Initiatives
Reflexive Architecture Machines
An exhibition of student and faculty research work in responsive materials.
Courses
ARC 605: Flexible Architecture
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.
