ABOUT ME

I received a Diploma in Architecture granted by the Faculty of Architecture in University of The Andes in Bogotá, Colombia in 2016. I have recently completed my master’s degree at the Design Research Laboratory in the Architectural Association School of Architecture, participating in the studio of Dr. Theodore Spyropoulos..

I have had previous professional experience in renowned offices such as in MAD Architects and 3XN Architects. There, I was involved in large scale projects, mainly focusing on developing façade panel components via Grasshopper. My passion lays at the coupling of computation and design, complex systems, bottom up processes and learning models. . I have a growing knowledge in C# and a drive to keep developing this skill during my career and to find new ways to integrate it as a fundamental tool in the discipline. During my free time I have started to develop my own software which currently uses Rhino/Grasshopper as its Graphical User Interface.

In my career, I aspire to participate both in academia and in practice to develop different ways of seeing the profession and the world. I am a very self-driven person, who is in constant search of knowledge. I am interested in how such acquisition can not only serve as an intellectual drive, but also as a medium that aids in new ways of bringing forth ideas.

A-Life is a dynamic architectural system that can respond to changes in its environment, trough self-awareness, mobility and reconfigurability. Our system will adapt to variations in its surroundings and to its local unit populations. Every individual unit is an autonomous entity that has the ability to move freely in 3-dimensional space. Alife is based on a local communication system between each agent, creating different types of spatial atmospheres changing continuously according to its population, people and environmental forces.

Our system has strategies of self-assembly where each individual component can organize and re-organize without any predefined blue prints in order to create different scales of intervention. Computational and physical research was developed to investigate strategies of organization, mobility and communication that demonstrate the ability of the single unit as well as the collective population. Machine learning was used, in order to develop individual unit behaviors without the necessity of being pre-programmed. As well as to investigate different types of cooperative behaviors between units to achieve various goals in mobility and self-organization. With local decision making the system can can be influenced by the user and its environment at different moments in time and rates of influence.

We envision a symbiotic relationship between Alife and people where both will learn from each other and evolve as an ecology. We have chosen a Brain Computer Interface as a framework to explore different kinds of man to machine correlations, were the units can understand people through their brain wave activity.

A life is a borderless system which is time-based, atmospheric and can operate at any scale. London will be our prototypical site, were Alife will be a new type of architecture that can augment how we relate to ourselves, the environment and machines. A life will use live data collected from the city as well as its local data produced within the system to communicate emotive and atmospheric patterns and to decide its deployment within the city.

UNITO TO UNIT INTERACTION

the communication between the units was primarly established through color sensors. Light pulsations and color sensing were how the units recognized each other and influences their individual behavior. Each color sensor was also connected to the individual propellors to influece their collective mobilityG 34

02. DISCRETE MANIFOLD ASSEMBLAGES Duration: 2.5 weeks Team:

Ogulcan SulucayTurkey) Omar Kadoura (Palestine) Taeyoon Kim (Korea)

Tutors: Tyson Hosmer

The workshop undertakes a design research into spatial, formal and material expression through 3D-modelling and 3D-printing. Topologically complex polygon meshes will be developed using simple procedural operations developed through design catalogues. These procedures will investigate topological mesh modelling, rind modelling and strategise the role of manifold topologies to define architectural space. These formally complex models must be also developed as closed manifold meshes suitable for 3D-printing. Designs will aim to explore the limits of high-resolution fabrication, modelling and the use of texturing within 3D-virtual spaces and 2D-rendered visualisations. The workshop will operate through a continuous and iterative prototyping procedures.

04. PARASITE Grasshopper plugin - Forsquare Data Work partner: Dr, Roland Hudson 2015

The contemporary city can be understood as a collection of different organic emergent systems. Examples of emergence can be the movements of crowds, traffic jams, a group of migrating birds or markets. The assemblage of a multitude of individual actions and decisions generates outcomes which cannot be described of the point of view of individual elements but as a collections of systems. These islands of high density interactions can be mapped using emergent data from location based networks as in Forsquare. By visualizing this data produced by the digital medium, we can see how social activity in an urban space is distributed and new emergence of spatial relations are formed. It creates a digital global urban pattern who’s DNA varies depending on each cities activity and information density clusters.

Parasite is a plugin for Grasshopper developed with Prof PhD Roland Hudson. Parasite retrieves social data from Forsquare, it’s a tool that aims to swim into the digital behavior of cities around the globe.

Data.

The data was collected calling Forsquare API which returns a maximum of 50 results per query. Since this is an overwhelmingly low rate, it was decided to construct a grid (granularity) from within the grasshopper component. In order to divide the search region into smaller cells, so that every cell will get 50 results. This method permits to optain 200-800 requests per city, producing 10,000 to 40,000 results. The result limit can be stretched but there has to be a consideration that the API limits search results to a maximum of 5,000 per hour.

Tools.

Visual studio was used in order to write the code to call the Forsquare API using the Newtonsoft.json.dll in order to read the API data in JSON format. Also, it was used to create the grasshopper component and adding a direct link to the Rhino-Grasshopper environment. For coordinate conversion Ghowl was used to get de latitude and longitude data to the model.

PROJECTS

05. SITE / NON-SITE LANDMARK Site landmark competition. Sagrev, Portugal Duration: 1 month Individual work 2016

The proposal investigates and takes inspiration from the processes of deformation of a natural object in a sea side weather condition and in its capacity to preserve its structural efficiency by supporting the materials selfweight. The Project also attempts to question the relationship between building and landscape and proposes a thesis which is a duality between being a site and a non-site landmark condition.

The interior spaces resemble a cave like spatial experience where the users will feel as they were inside the cliff or inside a natural object that has been eroded over time. The complex natural form of the spaces that are inscribed in the project resemble a site and a non-site landmark proposal due to its organic shape but at the same time its powerful â&#x20AC;&#x153;contrastâ&#x20AC;? to the surrounding landscape.

The materiality of the buildings makes reference to Peter Cook`s Sponge City in 1974 as a philosophy of buildings as landscape. The facade is made up of reflective aluminum panels which will mirror the surrounding landscape and change along with it driven by different local weather conditions. The Project in its whole seeks to be an object which is enveloped by natural coverage and is in its core a new morphology that is entirely complementary to the existing site.

06. ANONYMOUS Evolo 2016 Furniture Design Competition Duration: 1 month Individual work 2016

The proposal seeks to embrace Peter Eisenmans concept “space of becoming” in order to trigger a different way to think about furniture in today’s post fordist societies. The concept of space of becoming is the condition of multiple audiences with multiple perspectives and respectively divergent readings of the same space.

This differentiation was also related with the idea of fluidity and liquid as a representation of contemporary culture. With this theoretical premise the objective is to create an anonymous piece that is open to multiple interpretations from the user and it’s not just a lamp a table or a chair.

Instead of having one object designated to one specific function, appearance and nomenclature the liquid analogy suggests continuous smooth transitions where its parts flow into each other but at the same time have a gradient of differentiation. Anonymous pretends to be a smooth topographic transformation from a lamp to a chair to a small table and conform one piece of furniture, that will also have different relationship with its setting and users.

07. MAD ARCHITECTS Aegean World Trade Center competition. Izimir, Turkey 2016 Status: 1st place Duration : 4 months

This project was an invited high rise competition and the client was seeking a new Icon for the city of Izimir consisting of a mixed used high rise building of Offices and Housing and a Podium with parking spaces, retail and amenities. The project is surrounded by a very beautiful natural landscape, with mountain ranges and very close to de Aegean Sea, and it’s also connected to important transportation hubs and to the biggest park in Izimir. For the competition it was decided by the team to deliver two proposals, the proposal that won it’s the “bundled tubes”

Main responsibilities My work was constantly supervised by senior designer Jordan Kanter. In the beginning stages of the project I was responsible for building a very detailed digital site model, from detailing the facades of the surrounding buildings to incorporating a great area of the mountain ranges and the Sea. I also developed a massing proposal that I got to present in a meeting with founding partner Ma Yan Song with the approval of Jordan Kanter. In addition I also worked in producing most of the diagrams for in-house presentations, meetings with clients and for the final submission. Furthermore I assisted in developing the podium massing along with the roof landscape design. I also developed various grasshopper scripts which included a gradient fabrication logic for the balustrades of the towers for a physical model, and a privacy, park view and sea view, although this tool was used on a previous form.

08. 3XN ARCHITECTS Duration : 2 months 2016 Deutche Bank competition. Frankfurt , Germany Team: Jan Admudsen - Partner in charge Lola Rieger, - Project leader Kenn Clausen - Parametric designer Ryan Newman, Max Nemeuster, Juras Lavosky - Designers

The first phase of the Deutche bank competition was a masterplan proposal of the four towers which was one

by UNStudio. The brief of the second phase was to design in detail the towers following UNStudioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s massing plan and their proposed site boundaries. One half of the towers will be a residential program and the other two will be office space. The podium on the ground floor is composed of retail, amenity spaces and a small hotel. 3XN`s proposal aims to work with the 4 buildings as a family of towers which will be a new iconic space for Downton Frankfurt. The individual tower volumes are created by displacing each chunk individually, to give the overall massing a lighter and dynamic design. Green terraces are proposed in the podium and in parts of the towers to integrate urban life in to the project to create different public environments.

Responsabilities: I was part of the competition team since the beginning of the project. I helped to develop different massing proposals and design ideas for the overall form of the 4 towers. I also modeled in a very detailed way part of a historic building in the site that had to be integrated with the design. However, my focus on the competition was to work together with the design computation specialist for the facade development of the towers. I focused on developing the office towers facade through and incremental development of a robust grasshopper script together with simple custom python and C# components to enhance flexibility and functionality. The grasshopper definition allowed a variety of different iterations in the local scale (panel) and global scale which permitted the team to test different facade patterns and panel morphologies. *Rendering credits: 3XN Architects *Facade detail credits: 3XN Architects

09. 3XN Architects Duration : 2 months 2017 Concert Hall Competition. Munich , Germany Team: Jan Admudsen - Partner in charge Audun Opdal - Partner in charge Jesper Bork, - Project leader Kenn Clausen - Parametric designer Jes John Tonsgaard, Christian,- Designers The beauty of music is created by the harmony of stringent rhythms and Playful variations of the sounds – between the space where the music is created, And the people who experience them. The tools and systems of music, regardless of the styles, are Composers and eras, the same while their expression and feeling in Constant change and renewal. This harmony between The rational and the sensual – what is logical to explain and the, What can only be experienced – is our proposal for a new concert hall. Under-based in Munich.

Our proposal is based on the basic idea that a concert hall A practical building with as rational a business as possible Should be, as well as a special poetic place in the city, which will make people Inspired and seduced.

Music is a special space in which we humans A space that can be used to meet the dreams and longings of our lives Space offers.

Responsabilities I was part of the competition team since the beginning of the project. I assisted Audun Opdal, partner in charge of the project to design the interior of the main concert hall and the foye. I also developed custom tools to distribute chairs and people in the seating area accordingly, as well as scripts so the team could quickly evaluate sight lines. In addition I also developed a tool to produce the acustic paneling of the main hall
