MIXED REALITY SLIP CASTING

BUFFALO, NY ACADEMIC M. ARCH FALL 2024 VANESSA V. PROF. NICHOLAS BRUSCIA

Clay has been used as a construction material for thousands of year. This natural and sustainable material has many benefits, including environmental, technical and health advantages.

This research revolved around the process of slip casting. Slip casting is a technique where liquid clay is poured into a mold, allowed to dry and consolidate on the mold’s inner surface, before excess clay is drained, resulting in a hollow part. This process is commonly used in the industrial production of sanitary ware and in craft-based settings for creating different parts (Bechthold et al. 2015). Slip casting allows for the economic mass production of geometrically complex ceramic parts (Dawson 1964).

typical slip casting process

In today’s modern settings of industrial production of sanitary ware, slip casting has experienced further enhancements in process efficiency.

The script was developed understanding the axial rotation. The mould partially filled with slip was rotated guided by the fologram and Halolens. To ensure that each part of the mold is covered, we designed the script to repeat the axial rotation.

prototype testing results

Incorporating virtual reality (VR) technology into the design and fabrication process of bespoke slip casting has the potential to significantly enhance the user experience and expand therange of design possibilities.

By enabling users to manipulate the mold using hololens and fologram controllers, they can gain real-time visual feedback on theappearance of the actual piece, allowing for more intuitive design adjustments and exploration of unique forms.

This proposed method, which combines VR technology with slip casting, fosters a seamless integration between design and fabrication processes, encourages greater creativityand innovation, and enables users to better anticipate potential challenges in the fabrication process, such as slip shrinkage and surface tension issues. Ultimately, integrating VR technology into the bespoke slip casting process not only expands design possibilities but also has the potential to significantly improve the quality and adaptability of the final products.

PROF. NICHOLAS BRUSCIA

The studio was dedicated to developing new approaches to handwork fabrication informed by mixed reality guides, combining human intuition and experience with advanced holographic visualization tools and computational modeling.

To begin the semester, students were asked to design and construct a geodesic grid shell that obtains its strength through curvature and actively bending the material. The structure was to be assembled entirely in mixed reality — no drawing set or on-site measuring was used to complete the assembly, only holographic guides viewed through Microsoft HoloLens 2 headsets.

division of laths as per available material

All planks are geodesic to the surface, ensuring they remain straight with flush connections – keeping it efficient and inexpensive) The structure is built from reclaimed material (planks, hardware, and base) – and we used our own mixed reality workflow to allocate the entire catalog of used precut parts to this new structure.

I was part of the team performing bending tests. I collaborated with my classmates for testing of Hololens and Fologram simulations.

The bending test was conducted with reference to the form that was aimed at building. The tests were conducted using Fologram to bend the lath into desired curve and measure the bending radius. The material flexibility and variations in joints were examined to achieve the exact curve in the grid shell.

gridshell in hayes atrium

Longer central laths provide greater flexibility and a smoother transition when forming curves, as they distribute the stress more evenly across their length. This results in more consistent and accurate curved profiles, minimizing the risk of buckling or cracking during the bending process. In contrast, shorter laths tend to concentrate stress in smaller areas, making them more prone to material failure, such as cracking or splitting, especially under higher bending forces.

The overall geometry of the curves, including their width, height, and radius, is directly impacted by the length of the laths, their assembly configuration, and the angles applied during bending, highlighting the importance of material selection and design strategy in achieving desired structural outcomes.

This project envisages a new museum for Buffalo, which will house an important and growing permanent collection of post-World War II and contemporary art. The donor has given the collection to the public, together with a bequest to cover operating costs and to fund an ongoing program of acquisitions.

The building must be designed to support a wide range of curatorial and programmatic capabilities. It will include spaces to display pieces from the permanent collection host travelling exhibitions of significant contemporary artists from around the world; and provide venues for a diverse range of public programs. Today’s artists and architects are exploring new territories in media and materials, representation and communication.

The task of the studio was to speculate about the architecture that can best house this new work and enhance public cultural life in Buffalo.

play a crucial role in shaping the spatial experience, fostering connections between different parts of the building, and inviting interaction with the surrounding environment.

Looking at the site context, we wanted to propose a building that blends within the surrounding area.

The strategy was to take advantage of the streets and segregate the access for building from all streets. The main entrance is Delaware Street. The back of the house is from the proposed road on the south side.

Another Access to space is from Allen Street.

The education space entrance is from Virginia pl.

The plaza at the terminus becomes a focal point and a buffer zone.

When you enter from main street Delaware you are welcomed by an open plaza. With entrances carefully situated to embrace the flow of pedestrian traffic, the building becomes a seamless extension of the urban landscape, inviting exploration from all angles.

The plaza acts as a portal into the building. The first floor has all the public spaces to keep the space active throughout the day with various activities. The waiting and reception are located at central part for ease of movement.

The Allen Street has a heavy use of bricks.

The buildings surrounding the site has brick in varying sizes and patterns. Since our initial idea was to blend into the context we choose brick as the façade material.

To break the brick hierarchy and heavy mass we introduced different brick joinery at each level. The elevation and voids create a visual of solid and voids.

The voids in the volumes and gallery enable interaction between the different gallery spaces at different level. Daylight filters through the voids, animating the gallery spaces with a dynamic interplay of light and shadow. The daylight from the façade makes the space well lit throughout the day.

PROF. JOYCE HWANG

Centre for Sustainable Dying will memorialise the Death of Trading practices adapted by the native tribes between them. Trade within the tribe involved gift-giving, a means of obtaining needed items and social status.

Trade between tribes often took the form of an exchange of products of the hunt (bison robes, dried meat, and tallow) for agricultural products, such as corn, beans and squash. The Seneca procured many products in raw form from available resources in the Black Rock, Black Forest and the shores of Erie Canal.

Tribes often traded the items produced locally to obtain the items which they were unable to procure for the available resources. This centre will memorialise trading between tribes in the form of products rather than as a source of commerce. Trading back then was very different from what we see today, it was mainly carried out for livelihood and survival.

tribes of seneca

The Seneca use it for hunting and fishing lands; setting up temporary camps in various areas of Western New York. One of those seasonal camps existed at the junction of Lake Erie and the Niagara River. The most important neighbours of the Seneca tribe were the other Iroquois nations: the Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida, and Mohawk’s. Before the Iroquois settlements around lake erie

This approach not only reduces the visual bulk but also gives the building a more dynamic and engaging appearance.

Geometry and Color: The facade features strong geometric shapes, reinforcing a modern and minimalist aesthetic. The use of light and white colors on the facade contrasts with the darker background, helping to visually expand and enlarge the building. This choice of materials and color helps attract attention and create a strong architectural presence.

Challenges and Solutions: Narrow Site: The narrow width of the site posed a limitation for the exterior design, particularly in terms of the facade’s scale and proportion.

However, the use of smaller elements and varied dimensions helps to mitigate the impact of this constraint, making the building more visually appealing.

Budget Constraints: Given the speculative nature of the development and the economic budget, the design team faced the challenge of creating a building that would have architectural presence while being costeffective. The solution involved selecting materials and construction techniques that achieved a balance between cost and aesthetic value.

TELESIS

Anant Residences is a high-rise residential redevelopment project situated in Pune, designed to address the unique challenges of urban intensification while ensuring a seamless transition for the existing residents.

This project re imagines the potential of redevelopment by prioritizing equity, efficient space planning, and architectural elegance, making it a key addition to any portfolio of urban residential design.

My role was significant in the design development. The inclusion of old and new tenements while ensuring the carpet area allotment was a main challenge. The project is at construction phase nearing completion.

Redevelopment with Equity: One of the primary challenges of this project was ensuring that existing residents retained their rightful floor areas as part of the redevelopment. Each unit was designed to reflect the initial apartment sizes while enhancing spatial quality and functionality, ensuring a smooth transition for the users.

Optimized Floor Plate Design: The project leveraged a compact yet efficient floor plate of 1,000 sq. ft, allowing for a total built-up area of 14,000 sq. ft.

WHAT IS A COMMERCIAL SPACE ?

Commercial areas in a city are areas, districts, or neighbourhoods primarily composed of commercial buildings , such as a downtown, central business district, financial district, “main street”, commercial strip, or shopping centres.

Baner is a residential and commercial hub of Pune and large portions are occupied by various IT companies.

The future growth in population and development is going to pressurize the proposed commercial land. Post covid planning of large open spaces and plazas is necessary to ensure obedience of social distancing norms, having large open spaces also encourage more outdoor activities making neighbourhood lively around the clock and reduces creation of grey areas.

the complex will act as not only a meeting point of people but will also have spaces for after hours leisure and entertainment.

Inference from Area and site analysis.

E

Organization and allocation of sufficient parking area for cars and motor cycles is necessary to ensure free flow of traffic. Planning of cycle tracks is required. It lacks prominent landmarks.

Considering the present and proposed commercial activities the commercial frontages along the main road are low.

The public to semi public to private transaction is missing in office spaces. There is no definite link between the corporate areas in region.

VERTICAL STACKING ACCORDING TO FUNCTION VERTICAL STACKING ACCORDING TO FUNCTION OPEN SPACE FOR EACH CLUSTER

A single complex having all types of shops accommodated will have a greater user experience and will also reduce travelling to various stores separately.

A large scale area housing various eateries with open to semi open seating is necessary post pandemic. Major of small industries are software developing companies.

Offices and retail also make good partners, given again that the demand is there and the level of design and finishes compliment each other. So it follows on quite naturally that a mixed use development of retail, hotel and offices all together make a good mix, but creates difficulties in planning. It is imperative that there is sufficient parking, clearly demarcated, and that the entrance to the offices and hotel are separate. In favour of the multi mixed use developments is the fact that they help to mitigate the cyclical economic risks. In other words, when the retail sector is under pressure, the hospitality or commercial sector may be better. The question of mixed use with apartments directly above retail introduces a whole lot more difficulties. Whereas hotel and office occupants are transient, and therefore are more likely to put up with temporary inconveniences that may be a result of being

located above a commercial center, occupants of apartments are more permanent, and consequently more demanding. On the other hand, the economics of the development as a whole can assist in providing more affordable housing, by gearing of the finances of the commercial developments.

Mixed use reflects a physical and functional integration of its various components , which can be provided within a vertical mix of uses into a single mixed use building, the planned positioning of key plan components around a central public space or land use (for example, a shopping center), or through a town center/ urban village setting that interconnects uses through pedestrian friendly facilities.

Sun path analysis The analysis is carried out of shadow pattern through out the year. The months considered for analysis are March, June, September and December. The pattern is studied with time intervals of three hours during day time.

The study concluded that the facade facing east receives sunlight till noon. Post noon the facade Facing south receives sun light till late evening. The facade facing west receive very less direct sun light. The facade facing north is mostly in shadows throughout the year. Facade treatment is required to reduce the direct sun light entrance and to minimize the heat gain by facade.

The design of facade with reference to light and shadow pattern is necessary to reduce the heat gain and reduce direct light in building.

The excessive heating of facades may lead to warm interiors which will need more power for cooling. The more power consumption for cooling and heating makes building less energy efficient and more expensive.

T​ he facades of a building visible from a street play an important role in contributing to

31

the amenity and attractiveness of an area.

Facades should therefore be designed to have a pleasing scale and appearance, proportion and rhythm, solid-to-void relationship and materiality. Care and attention should be given to their design to ensure the building stands up to critical observation from near and afar. It is essential that all building elevations are considered and designed as an integral part of the overall development.

The site is east west orientated with access road on east side. Being east west orientated the site is in sunlight all day. Less surrounded by building the site is not in shade. The prevailing wind direction is west - southwest may cause warm breeze to enter building if left untreated.

Consideration of building materials for facade that are climate responsive and economic is necessary. The Sustainability of materials is important for the building to live longer. This will ensure less harm to Environment and more human comfort during working hours.

Various facade materials were studied to choose the better option available. A combination of aesthetic and structural materials is need for facade to be aesthetically appealing and structural stability with protection from all year climatic conditions.

Since a long time, Wai is always seen under the shadow of Panchagani and Mahabaleshwar as these Hill stations are an all time favourite of the tourists.

Wai is famous and scenic tirtha kshetra or place of pilgrimage, place of historical importance and centre of knowledge in Satara district of south Maharashtra.

Wai is the first town along Krishna river after its origin at Mahabaleshwar. The river flows from west to east, and its northern bank shows dense urban growth, dotted with temples and ghats of rich visual character.

This town is an interesting example of culturally evolved landscape, where the resources and limitations put forth by nature , together with culture in the region has evolved a particular physical manifestation in the form of land – water interface, ghats temples, river associated agriculture based settlements, river regulation and it also is associated modern infrastructure unit dhom dam.

The town has a rich and a glorious past known for years as ‘ dakshin kashi’ among the vedic scholars.

In the recent times Wai has become a notable centre of culture on account of

conceptual sketch

In the early hours of January 26, 2001, an earthquake that lasted for but a few seconds in the state of Gujarat wiped out 13,805 lives and with that destroyed property and infrastructure worth billions. A culture of resilience has now been imbibed in the land that traces its roots to the Harappan Civilization anchored in the Dhola Vira excavations from 4500 years ago.

The idea was to bring people back together through informal exchanges and encounters.

The building was set in the extensive program where not only would studies in Kutch culture be undertaken, but it would also serve as a multi purpose nucleus for interaction between the crafts person and designers, development of craft techniques and use of materials, business and documentation support, training and enhancement of skill, archiving, data banks and traditional knowledge systems and sales and marketing.

The Art and Craft Centre is a joint exploration of architectural capacities to reawaken the local crafts and impart a meaning to tradition, far beyond its origin, in the wake of the devastation, wreaked by an earthquake in the year 2001.

As a seemingly simple plan, the design facilitates a rather complex sequence of movement, revealing only parts of the campuses one walks through, encountering plausible points for informal exchanges in between- sometimes under the shade of a tree, sometimes amidst a cluster of buildings- in many ways tapping into a familiar way of living, congregating and working.

Rammed Earth Rammed earth’s compressive strength and cohesive nature naturally resist cracks and fractures. The interlocking particles within the rammed earth mixture provide inherent stability.

Rammed earth’s eco friendly nature, thermal efficiency, and unique aesthetic appeal make it a compelling choice for those seeking a more harmonious and sustainable living environment.
