Advanced Tectonics

Graduate School

(Group Project) - 4 Weeks

The objective was to explore the material boundaries of concrete and reconnect tectonics with the human hand. Our group’s proposal focused on designing a family of modules (two) that can be configured into various seating and table options relative to the proportions of the human body. The surface finish of the modules’ is designed to be inviting (smooth and glossy) in contrast to concrete’s typical nature of being a hard and rough surface.
