An ongoing exploration of a living room in the middle of nature. Started as a call for form and space. Then a coherence was sketched - program, use, typology, tectonics, material references, objectual ambitions. To Design is to find an answer to these questions, reducing possibilities into a chosen result.

Imagine a squared donut, supported by arches in the middle of the woods, during spring. Just enough objects, to make it livable.

Some of the elements depicted are reinterpretations from other gorgeous projects, for example,

Anne Holtrop - Boutique Charlotte Chesnais, Depot in Barhain, several pieces of furniture
Extrastudio - Casa Vermelha
Toyo Ito - Tama Art University Library
Sverre Fehn - Nordic pavilion
Le Corbusier - Ville Savoye

urban flakes on the move

Two textures move and mix in a grid.
In every cell volumes are generated according to the available data.

It could be LEGO, or a city...

METAPOLIS Köln - New cities available. Starting now, this project reflects the 2D and 3D geographic information systems on geoportal.nrw. On the image, Köln, on the website Düsseldorf, Duisburg, Dortmund and of course Münster. More cities are on the way.

In a few clics you can access both the Liegenschaftskataster and 3D model on the featured cities. All data is open, produced with open or licensed software and fees are charged to cover research and logistic costs. We are always open to new requests, get in touch!
With the next cities we will close an important phase of this project. It was fun and interesting! We sincerly hope you find this useful, this is a tool for all architects working in Nordrhein-Westfalen. It naïvely competes with all Katasteramts

We are starting 2021 with the publication of a project in which we strongly believe. A tool for remote work, which uses visualization techniques and open LIDAR data, providing architecture teams with a quick solution for analysis and visualisation. A free version is also available!
It is a self-developed algorithm starting in Münster NRW, expanding to another cities.
A positive preliminary talk with Munster's Stadtplanungsamt provided valuable information on how this tool could evolve, possibly opening new partnerships.

Try out the automatized Münster model and most importantly, tell us how could this tool get better for you :)

This is a starting commercial project. In case anything isn't clear or doesn't work properly, our mail, phone, social media channels are always receptive.

This was a first proposal for an industrial site in Haus Aden, together with ead-architekten. An old mine shaft, now being part of the ground water drainage system of the Ruhrgebiet.
We wanted to solve the problem of a huge structure, with a 40m x 40m x 30m monolithic cube. Prefabricated aluminium panels in a parametric arrangement would be the last piece of the puzzle.

Reviewing our archives and finding hidden gems. This is an "almost" automatic model from Lisbon, all from open data on the web.

December 2019 admin News Lisbon We were reviewing our archives and finding hidden gems. This is an “almost” automatic model from Lisbon, from open data on the web. Wonderful times.
