WATER MUSEUM | BACHELOR FINAL PROJECT

PORTFOLIO

ESFAHAN, IR

ANIMATION

2017

Regarding the lack of appropriate water and the importance of this precious matter in our lives, This project focused on designing a museum of water in order to aware people of the Costs, tools and the process of producing healthy drinkable water. There are 2 elevators located in two sides of the ramp for accessing the next floors. Inside the ramp, there are objects and tools which have been used by our ancestors.

There are also explanation sheets about water and these tools.

WATER MUSEUM | BACHELOR FINAL PROJECT CONCEPT

Based on my researches, water molecule has 6-polygonal structure. It can be seen from every water molecule around the world. Therefore, I used this structure as main shape in my design. The whole idea is about sharing space among components via spin_attractors. Metaball is a complement for implementing this theory. Components (cores) share space via special technique based on tendency. These tendencies are used for drawing curves. Every tendency is a layer which is also used for creating volume. As you see, the purpose is about gathering spaces around together via spin forces whereby volumes fit on their places appropriately. These spin forces divide space around them and cause soft curves which are used for plan and walls. Although, I selected only few principal curves for my goal.

This diagram shows how this theory turn to idea for drawing and generating spaces. The idea was about using water flow in site plan and gathering 3 principal items including “Museum”,”Amphitheatre” and “Office“ + “Landscape” via using digital architecture and folding methods. These are 18 variations of magnetic fields based on changing 3 factors including : Rotation radius, Rotation degree and Intensity of charge points. Finally, one variation was designated for creating plan.

There are 6 plans that explains the location of every designed component. Office zone and amphitheatre are in second floor. The ramp, which is the principle part of the designed museum, starts in ground floor and ends in third floor. It shows the objects which have been used during years and their roles in our contemporary world.

WATER MUSEUM | BACHELOR FINAL PROJECT GROUND FLOOR | ENTRANCE

The structure that is shown in renders, has detail which is available on detail section of my dissertation portfolio. Every triangle on structure has a panel that can react to the natural sun-light, however there is no panel in renders due to PC restrictions. Stone patterns are also available on the same section. Renders of gallery, aquarium & ramp are on render section.

WATER MUSEUM | BACHELOR FINAL PROJECT GROUND FLOOR | PERMANENT GALLERY

Permanent gallery shows different art-works in comparison with museum. This part has radial structure and it can be seen in Plans sheet & in details sheet. There is also a temporary gallery above this floor that can be used for designers, painters and others art-works. Every panel has unnatural lighting below & above them which has executive detail.

HIVE | MASTER FINAL PROJECT LONDON, UK

BARTLETT FIFTEEN SHOW PORTFOLIO

2020

Hive is a modular kinetic architecture inspired by bee colony behavior. There are certain types of honeybees that produce a Mexican wavelike cascade called ‘shimmering’, when they feel threatened. When a wasp or other big insects come too close to the hive, the honeybees work together to disorient the threat. The effect of wave makes it difficult for an insect to single out and attack an individual honeybee. The design project attempts to harness this behavior to create a shimmering facade system.

17

HIVE | MASTERS FINAL PROJECT PAVILION MODEL

Hive has a single-button full automatic core system. It tessellates any type of geometry into hexagons, and then exports fabrication, assembly data and cost estimation to the user by pressing only one button.

This program can be used by anyone with or without having knowledge about coding, mechanical systems and electrical wirings, to turn their own concepts into reality. This is inspired by intrinsic attitudes of bees who organize their hive build through bottom up emergent order.

HIVE | MASTERS FINAL PROJECT PETAL DESIGN

Part of the interesting things about these panels is that you can change their flexability and behaviour based on the pattern that you laser cut them. There are different parameteres for controlling the pattern including: number of seperator columns, distance between them, offset between cut lines and the original hexagon, thickness of lines. number of lines, ... . On of the important factors was gravity effects on pattern density. Tests were done in different directions as patterns show different behaviour by changing the rotation of petals. Altough, a non-bended pattern is not necesserilly a good pattern since petaling movement needs to also be considered. After several experiments, one finally was chosen. Another set of experiments also were done with bigger hexagons size for understanding the logic between pattern density and petals size. The final code can create a pattern for each size of hexagons.

19

HIVE | MASTERS FINAL PROJECT ASSEMBLED PETALS

Since each hexagon is different in its size, there was a need for a code to produce pattern for each petal. In this code, curves are produced based on petals numbers which are lasered at the time of assembly, so each petal is positioned in its right location.

HIVE | MASTERS FINAL PROJECT 3D MODEL FOR FABRICATION

Selected hexagons (192 Petals) for fabrication

21

HIVE | MASTERS FINAL PROJECT FABRICATED MODEL

This project focused on low cost freeform kinetic sculpture. The SG90 was chosen as it is the cheapest motor amongst servos, and it works with low voltage power which decreases the power supply cost and the energy usage .Plywood was chosen as the main material for the support structure and the petal since it is cheaper than any other material such as: metal and plastic.

DIGITAL CASTING II | CONCRETE CASTING FABRICATION PROCESS

This project focused on a shell made out of the pre-cast concrete pieces. While the concrete pieces were strong enought to bear the load of compressive forces, since it was not a single piece, tension cables added to the system for attaching them togetehr with tensile forces. Two systems worked together in the formation of the shell.
