Site is one of the starting point; a site contain within an urban fabric would inform the architecture through its context, the physical state of the site will also pose a fundamental limitation/suggestion and lead onto possibilities of forms.
The brief ask for a residential prototype on a hypothetical site with a slope. The slope surface is a quarter-circular curve surface with an radius of 27m.
The project start with a president study of the Basento Viaduct, a minimal structure bridge located in Italy.
A 3D morphing lattice is proposed as the structure to contact the site. An integrated fabric formwork is proposed for the production of the structure and a series of study was made as a prove of concept.
This project was completed in cooperation with Paul Poinet.
