Augmentation 5 - Transformation

Wall - Furniture

Assembly Work by Users in the Quad

I reused the work from Augmentation 5 in the final project. Users can make their furniture in Quad design, with new walkways and seating areas added. The modular parts are interlocked on the walls and they can produce furniture such as seats and tables by fixing these modules to each other with different combinations. Users can access the needed information by scanning the QR code on the pieces for installation instructions, combinations, and safety precautions. These modules are formed by the transformation of plastic waste in the Zero - Waste Lab with the Injection Molding Machine (page 41).

Entrance

At the entrance of the building, there is an information desk and chairs (Arne Jacobsen, Swan Chairs) in the waiting area. The ground floor is public and other users of the college can bring in plastic and paper waste and recycle paper waste. Access to other units is limited to laboratory users only.

Robotic Arm 3D Printer

This machine, which prints large-scale objects, is where plastic waste brought by university users is brought after shredding. Moderately resistant products can be produced here. More free designs in terms of size and shape can be provided in products.

Small-scale 3D Printer

It is used for the production of small size products. The durability of the products is low.

Injection Molding Machine

It is used for the production of medium sized products. Products are tough and durable.
