New institute building for machine learning

The four-storey building is located on the north-west boundary of a large science and technology park. The structure serves as the starting point for a chain of distinct urban blocks, creating a gradual transition between the large-scale research buildings and the low-density detached housing area to the west. To the north, the building opens onto the surrounding field landscape. Research facilities for machine learning have been established here as part of the University of Tübingen’s Excellence Strategy. Prefabricated in a serial production process, the timber modular structure was completed within a mere seven months. The building meets high sustainability standards. Designed in accordance with Silver BNB Certification susta... More

Can2021 _ ModularSystem

Speed, compatibility, eco-sustainability and safety are some of the key words that orbit around this project, which was born out of the government's need to accommodate a large number of athletes and visitors during the upcoming CAN2021 African Cup of Nations football event. Caption The modular concept is the basis for the construction of the entire project. It allows for variability in the overall distribution and also for speed and efficiency during the transport and assembly phases. Caption From the first idea, it is clear how easy the adaptable system is. The arrangement of the modules is intended solely to ensure privacy, but at the same time to optimise the connection to the water, electricity and sewage networks. In fact,... More

Trus(s)tool Wall

Trus(s)tool Wall is a transformable modular furniture set in Muroto Whale Museum at Kochi prefecture.This display showcase is an assembly of modular units named Truss Stool, and works also as a screen to prevent direct sunlight to the space.The stool units are made by Hinoki cypress from the region which has the characteristic of high content of oils providing high elasticity in the material. Assembly of the small cells forms a three dimensional truss wall which obtains a strong structural stability. Simple pin connection detail allows units to follow elastic deformations in time, and to transform its composition and shape flexibly by different uses as bench, table, and counter etc. The cellar structure provides spatial diversity with minim...

PALAFITTA

“Palafitta” is born from an image, from the memory of an architectural typology, from the idea of a simple structure proposed in an equally essential and functional element of furniture. The lines emphasize the architectural aspect of the piece, while the play of media and volumes visually reverts the roles. The three-dimensional elements are separated from one another, such as dropped and suspended at the same time. The image of the “Palafitta” takes on a strong connotation determined by the importance of the support that deliberately does not hide, but accentuates the original concept. The volumes reveal themselves by taking on a function and separating each other, showing the added value of the entire creation: the flexibility of the... More
