The objective of the studio is to develop parametrically defined material systems that are structure and skin at the same time. The development of these systems will originate from the definition of their simplest constituents integrating manufacturing constraints and assembly logics in parametric components. The initially simple components will be proliferated into larger more complex system with differential density and permeability. The exploration towards structure as a performative skin and skin as a differentiated structure is divided into sixth phases of work. Groups consisting of two students will develop physically and digitally proliferated component systems.

PARA-Site True Scale Prototype at CONSTRUMAT 16 to 21 of May

2011-05-11T12:40:00.016+02:00

ELISAVA_ADDA is very pleased to announce the presentation of the real scale responsive prototype PARA-Site. PARA-Site it is an architectonical design based on the logics of time based formations through material intelligence.
We can say that we are learning to view what we design as a living system, with the ability to react to an also living environment and adapt to it. Consequently, we can think about designs that feel, observe, listen, react, propose, learn and interact.

The prototype will be exhibit at CONSTRUMAT (Barcelona Construction Exhibition) from 16 to 21 of May at Pavilion 3.

We will be pleased to show you a demo on the interaction and the motion capacities of the PARA-Site.

We wait for your visit.

HybGrid in the European 7th Framework Research Program

2011-03-24T15:21:00.003+01:00

HYBRIDa is very proud to announce you that after several years and different attempts, we already have won the 7th Framework Programme for Research: CAPACITIES. Research for the SMEs.
2.000.000 € of European founding will be shared with different technological centers to put forward the development of the HybGrid (Digital and physical components) for a time based adaptable structure through material intelligence.

ADDA BIODLAB/ HYPERBODY REPORT 1/12/2010

2010-12-01T12:29:00.009+01:00

After the presentations, The new teams consisting in two components from HYPERBODY and two components from ADDA, will work on the idea of combining the two systems in a new revisited hybrid proposal.
This new system will include some particularities, performance capacities and material organization logics coming from the two former projects. This phase has to be fast and dynamic; making the hybridization easy will produce a better effect on the final work of the group. We have to keep in mind that there is a lot of development to put forward, so teams have to be flexible to integrate and share knowledge, the final proposal is something new for the two teams, and basically consist on exploring real scale component building fabrication techniques and design.

¿Por qué ADDA, por que en Barcelona?

Los últimos años Barcelona ha mostrado un fuerte interés por las nuevas corrientes arquitectónicas centradas en el diseño avanzado, diseño con medios computacionales y teorías sobre sistemas emergentes.

En ninguna otra ciudad de España hay una oferta tan amplia donde se puedan encontrar tantas universidades con un interés común, que impartan cursos de posgrado de diseño avanzado en arquitectura.

En la última década se establece Barcelona la sede de McNeel Europa, como centro operativo de cultivo de las últimas tendencias en software de modelado 3d más avanzado, RHINOCEROS, GRASSHOPPER, en donde periódicamente se dan cursos de formación avanzada a usuarios de toda Europa i América.

Como consecuencia empresas satélite como TDM Solutions (RhinoGold) se establecen para desarrollar plugins como Rhino CAM, Zebra e incluso Rhino Nest.

Este ultimo año Barcelona ha sido sede del Smart Geomtry Conference atrayendo a centenares de personas provenientes de todo el mundo con el interés común y este año se establece el Disseny Hub Barcelona como centro permanente de diseño avanzado, y como antena receptora de ultimas vanguardias.

Empresas como Seat del sector automoción establecen su centro de diseño también en Barcelona generando un máster de diseño avanzado de automoción, que se imparte también en ELISAVA_UPF, y que está vinculado a IBO, centro de investigación y diseño en automoción.

Producto de la oferta en las universidades, y centros de desarrollo se establece en Barcelona un colectivo docente y profesional de procedencia internacional que participa en docencia y formación tanto en universidades como en empresas elevando la calidad en la formación e investigación, imposible de encontrar en otras ciudades europeas, y que permite que Barcelona compita con centros de conocimiento y vanguardia como son Londres y Nueva York.

ADDA_ELISAVA

Advanced Design and Digital Architecture, es un producto de todos estos factores, ADDA se crea con un colectivo de docentes con diez años de experiencia en las nuevas propuestas proyectuales centradas en el entorno digital, ADDA colabora con muchas de estas empresas y centros de investigación y otras universidades, participa de profesorado internacional atraído por la oferta docente de Barcelona,

ADDA se establece como curso referente de investigación y exploración en el diseño arquitectónico de vanguardia.

Por esta razón participar en la experiencia de ADDA_ELISAVA es garantía la calidad, y innovación, por que el programa y colectivo docente es de excelencia, por que se encuentra en una escuela de diseño reconocida internacionalmente como es ELISAVA y por que el entorno en el que se encuentra ADDA es de indudablemente de los más apropiados y competitivos del mundo.

CONGRATULATIONS ADDA 2009-2010 !!!

Normalmente la arquitectura tiende a diferenciar de forma muy específica las diferentes partes de un edificio de acuerdo con los requerimientos y función que deben cumplir. Constantemente creamos sistemas y subsistemas mono-funcionales organizados en orden jerárquico, como un sistema estructural primario, una piel o sistema secundario mediador de las condiciones climáticas, y incluso un sistema terciario que trabajaría como filtro de luz. El objetivo de este estudio se centrara en explorar una línea trabajo en la que encontraremos un sistema material multifunción, el estudio pretende encontrar maneras alternativas de negociar multitud de funciones en un mismo sistema. JK Kim, parametric model of the material system.

Este sistema se definirá a partir de encontrar un componente. Este componente topológicamente el mismo pero variaciones formales, deberá ser capaz de proliferar en configuraciones de campo para crear un sistema global diferenciado, con lo cual tendremos de estudiar las uniones entre los componentes, y como estas crean un efecto formal al combinarse. Las fases del estudio serán:
1_definición del componente, la cual vendrá después de una exploración de las propiedades físicas inherentes a los materiales escogidos para definir los componentes o unidades.
2_Proliferación algorítmica, la proliferación del componente para crear un sistema solo será posible si se definen cuidadosamente unas reglas de unión y relación entre los componentes. Estos deberán combinarse de forma que el sistema logre coherencia estructural, y diferenciación formal. Estas reglas las llamamos Algoritmos.

Las herramientas tradicionales de CAD se basan en objetos geométricos cerrados, un cambio en el diseño requiere cambiar todos los componentes necesarios para reajustar el dibujo. El software tradicional CAD/CAM/CAE utiliza una función llamada “paramétrica”. Un método conectar dimensiones y variables a la geometría de tal manera que cuando los valores cambian, la parte también cambia. Un parámetro es una variable a la que se relacionan otras variables, y esas otras variables se pueden obtener mediante ecuaciones paramétricas.
De esta manera se pueden realizar rápidamente y sin re-dibujar, modificaciones en el diseño. A la vez que se pueden producir formalizaciones totalmente imprevistas tan solo modificando algunos de estos parámetros. Estas modificaciones paramétricas pueden ser ejecutadas mediante una hoja de cálculo, script, o cambiando manualmente el texto de dimensión en un modelo digital.
4_Propiedades del sistema, el curso acaba con el estudio tanto digital como físico de las propiedades que se derivan del sistema construido. En este el proyecto, sistema debe ser examinado, debemos reconocer el potencial del sistema creado para proponer arquitectura, dependiendo de la escala estaremos hablando de un componente, o de una estructura formal capaz de generar espacio habitable y por lo tanto arquitectura.

1_PROFILE

2008-06-20T11:29:00.010+02:00

Material Systems Laboratory_Ma(S)Lab
Material Systems Laboratory es un espacio académico que combina diseño experimental e investigación y que se implica en la búsqueda de un discurso contemporáneo en la arquitectura. Ya son cinco años de exploración en distintos entornos académicos, MasLab cuenta ya con cuatro ediciones en el máster de Arquitectura Biodigital , cinco ediciones del curso de pregrado diseño y producción de arquitectura digital también en la ESARQ _ Universitat Internacional de Catalunya, cinco ediciones en el curso de pregrado “Espais Hybrids”de la escuela superior de diseño ELISAVA_Pompeu Fabra y con una edición con un Advanced Design Studio en Pratt school of Architecture en New York.

Ahora el 2009-2010, MaSLab se establece como posgrado en ELISAVA-UPF, como curso de investigación y diseño avanzado en espacio y arquitectura.

MaSLab se centra en relevancia que tienen los nuevos paradigmas digitales en el proceso de proyectar, combinado con una fuerte exploración en el campo de lo material. El Estudio propone procesos de morfogénesis para diseño y producción en arquitectura, experimentando diferentes líneas de trabajo. En las últimas ediciones esto se ha reforzado con la incorporación y el uso de software parametrico-asociativos CAD/CAM/CAE que nos permite explorar en los procesos de mecanizado, Fabricación digital así como reproducir propiedades materiales o explorar en la auto organización de los sistemas creados. La intención al final en el estudio es acabar formulando nuestras propias gramáticas (Componentes). Para crear sistemas formales. En el estudio Proponemos la investigación como medio fundamental del proyecto, por lo tanto el proceso de trabajo tomara especial importancia. Entendemos que este proceso es de alguna manera catalizador de información que proviene de campos tan diferentes como el diseño en la arquitectura, la ingeniería de materiales, la computación, y la ingeniería de estructuras....y que es sensible a la actualidad con conceptos como sistemas emergentes, sistemas auto-organizativos, o biomimética. Para ello nos hemos ido nutriendo de las herramientas más contemporáneas que nos permiten controlar y ser precisos en estos procesos de trabajo, hemos entendido que la herramienta digital es mucho más que una ayuda de dibujo, es en realidad un generador de resultados emergentes. Los principales software que utilizamos en la fase avanzada de los proyectos son de la familia de los llamados parametrico y asociativos. En MaSLab estos últimos años hemos contado con diversos seminarios teóricos, conferencias y colaboradores que aportan sólidos contenidos teóricos y referencias en el campo que tratamos.
