CLAYSCAPESMSc Dissertation EmTech

AA School of Architecture, London

The research explores the opportunities of fibrereinforced material composites in order to design self supporting integrated structures at the buildingscale that can provide different spatial qualities. The study focuses on textile formwork as a form findingmethodology and applies digital simulation methods to investigatetherelationshipbetweengeometryandmaterial behaviour, in order to address the materialstructural limitations. Furthermore, the design projectfor a Learning Centre is tested in the context of the Sub-Saharanregioninrelationtothelargeavailabilityofthe material and appropriate environmental conditions.
