Publications
Situated Technologies Pamphlets
The Situated Technologies Pamphlet series aims to explore the implications of ubiquitous computing for architecture and urbanism.
Initiatives
Hida Workshop
The semi-annual Hida Workshop combines Japan’s traditional craftsmanship with current digital design techniques.
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.
