Collaborative, community-based construction is considered to be the key. Through simple methods for untrained laborers and the use of local inexpensive materials the project seeks to demonstrate to the community how enhanced traditional building techniques provide real possibility for future building development: low cost, low tech construction that they can build by them-selves, using their own resources. A simple bamboo construction system was devised through a lightweight bamboo frame and extensive onsite prefabrication of modular components, all to be assembled in place and fitted together by traditional knot technology.

Located on a peninsula, the buildings complex try to be in harmony with the surrounding constructions and nature, being ar-ranged in a staggered line from high to low density. Its porous structure allows a greater visual permeability while providing protected outdoor spaces.To ensure the diversity of typologies, these were mixed and juxtaposed, maintaining however the same structural grid through-out the building, thus allowing greater efficiency in construction.The bedrooms and living area are all facing the quiet courtyard and riverside while the access area, kitchen and dining room work as a buffer zone facing the busy street adjacent to the channel.

The Aga Khan Foundation Mozambique’s Habitat Initiative seeks to preserve and enhance the local architectural tradition, in which renewable resources like earth and bamboo are used to provide natural temperature and humidity regulation. The project’s goal is to improve upon existing building methods in order to extend building lifespan, thus addressing the challenge of providing rural communities with high-quality habitats. In the first phase of the project, eleven multipurpose learning centres were built to showcase the new construction methods. To facilitate the implementation and dissemination of these techniques, a total of forty local apprentices were trained in ecological building methods. As models of low-cost, high-quality, sustainable construction, the learning centres were designed to inspire others to imitate the new style. The project’s ongoing second phase seeks to use the same local materials and improved construction methods in the development of a similarly easy-to-replicate residential building style.

The goal of this project is to renovate the primary school École Zaouia, in the Skoura oasis. The future school campus will be developed in different phases extending itself to the surrounding lots and occupying them with different functions. The mixture of developed parcels and oasis gardens stresses the concept of learning with and in the oasis.The new school consists of eleven classes and administrative facilities at the main entrance. The L-shaped buildings for the classes are organized in order to create clusters between them, resulting in small patios that give the possibility for smaller activities. At the same time the clusters are linked with larger patios for main open air activities. Having such diversity of spaces and elements on the playground area allow a more flexible use of it, providing environments, such as reading corner, stage, table area, storage space, etc.The L-shape of the classrooms allows a flexible use of the interior, by creating a small space which can be used as a storage or a class extension.

With the possibility of seismic risks in the area of Skoura and being the new school built with earth, special attention was given to earthquakes safety requirements in the construction. These concerns are solved with detached buildings, one storey height and symmetrical structures.

For the summer, shading devices and deep window frames in the build-ings are used to avoid the solar rays. Moreover, the use of rammed

earth walls to ensure high thermal mass will keep the cool air inside. For the winter, the building warming up is done by solar gains through the windows and by using geothermal energy.

The project place is a semi-abandoned industrial area by the river, wich is located near Frankfurt and surrounded by adormitory neighbourhood.The building results in a waveform structure, whose cover starts on the ground, allowing everyone to enjoy it, as it extends the garden. In the end, by folding over itself it creates a row of seats. Moreover, it creates a viewpoint for the skyline of Frankfurt. The entry point is in the covering, thus increasing the impact it has as it emphasizes the entrance itself.

Der Messestand WellPappWelle repräsentiert den Fach-bereich Architektur der TU Darmstadt.

Materialinnovation, digitale Planung und kundenindividu-elle CNC Fertigung sind die relevanten Parameter.

Wellpappe als kostengünstiges, rezyklierbares Material ist konzeptbestimmend. Der innovative räumliche Einsatz überrascht und entwickelt einen eigenen optischen Reiz.

Der Messestand integriert innerhalb seiner Topographie die Funktionen Kommunikation, Sitzen und Ausstellung. Ein Set von Regeln definiert die unterschiedliche Ausbildung der Form.

Mittels parametrischer 3d Software wird der Messestand computergestützt modelliert. Die digitalen Daten gehen nahtlos in die Produktion. Die 324 unterschiedlichen Bau-elemente werden durch CNC-Wasserstrahltechnologie hergestellt. Die Fügung der Segmente erfolgt durch lineare Verspannung.

wird mit 4,50 m x 3,00 m festgelegt. Die Höhe

des Raumes mit 3,20 m lässt keinen allumschlie-

Experimental Parametric Object University group project | 5th year In the context of an exhibition of several faculties to be held on the city of Darmstadt, the faculty of architecture developed a workshop to create and build its own exhibition structure.The result is a layer structure made of cardboard that has slight changes between each layer and creates an organic form that allows various possibilities through its surface, which can vary from a seat to the use of bookcase.

It was requested a holidays house for a writer located on a hill near the ocean.The result is a house composed by a main volume that contains the social area and by cubic volumes attached containingthe private area. These second ones, through the space between them, control the view from social space to the outside.The main idea behind this project is the sculptural punctuation of the landscape through the building.

Being of utmost importance in architecture the ability to convey ideas and concepts in communication with customers, I be-lieve that with my technical skills I’m an asset to your office.I like to explore new ways of design and take any task as a challenge to bring the presentations standards to another level.
