California Roll House 23 mod del re California Roll House, 2011 At times, the simplest form with least manipulation from its original form can offer visual amenities and adapted solution to the context. California Roll prefabricated house takes this methodology to create its morphological adaptation to its environemt : desert. Homogeneous exterior material which provides high grade of energy efficiency and reflects heat from the sun covers the entire surface except for glass panels which is electronically controlled to change its transparency. Modularization of every structure members and finish materials are maximized to provide mobilty with rapid assembly and disassembly on site. To sustain its challenging structural stand, carbon fibre truss frame under neath the exterior material holds the entire architecture. Hydraulic powered automatic doors and security system is used for main entrance door which allows less spaces to operate the door mechanism. California Roll house features these latest technologies applied to architecture which breaks the boundary of product or vehicle design and architectural design which brings more mobility to living spaces. Plain surface on the ground extended from exterior surface provides paved area for out door activities which requires flat and artificial surface different from desert sand surface. As well as surface on the ground, inside of exterior shell is covered with fibre reinforced plastic panels. ground floor plan first floor plan Second floor interior Modularized skylights and windows along the exterior surface can be placed at desired location to light its interior space to meet resident’s requirement from his own usage of the space. Passive and subtle control of privacy of bedroom area is provided by curtain divider and bookshelf with translucent midpart. These parts allows the residents to have sense of privacy by delicate visual hints over as well as providing lights through. Overall, the privacy in California Roll is controlled rather passively with resident’s awareness than tight blocking of spaces in-between. Click below images to enlarge long section A long section B cross section Automatic main door mechanism diagram Since the main entrance is on the sloped wall, the door mechanism should be designed in unconventional way. Adopting ideas from automotive design industry, hydraulic powered automatic door controlled by number lock panel is installed on the sloped wall as main entrance to minimize the space required for operation to avoid contact with user while in operation. When the door is fully open, the clearence height is up to 2 meters. The door opens into two pieces, the upper piece lifts up over head, and the lower piece unfolds onto the floor for visitors to step on. When the door is completely closed, the material on the outside of door continues with the material of the exterior surface to achieve conformity and hide the entrance.

Elastic wood.

Lo subieron a Papendieck pero me parece bueno tenerlo acá. Salud!.

Agradecimiento a florencia que lo subió.

gilli kuchik of israeli design group bakery presents 'elastic wood' at milan design week 2010.


flexing the chair into shape

wood has long been used as a primary material for producing furniture, in which designers
have connected, carved and bent the natural material into various 3D shapes.

'elastic wood' focuses on wood joinery and seeks to explore what happens when they become flexible.
its production is influenced by the process of over molding, where two materials are used to complete
an enhance each other's characteristics. here, wood is used for its compatibility for home furniture -
its touch and warm aesthetic - while the elastic material is used for the purpose of transforming the
2D spread into a 3D shape. the combination of the two materials adds the aspect of flexibility to a
typically rigid piece of furniture produced in wood.

Makerbot: una impresora 3D con un precio razonable

Makerbot es la primera impresora 3D que tiene un precio relativamente accesible con todas las funciones y la buena calidad de los lideres en el mercado. ¿El truco? Es una especie de mezcla entre un Hack y un proyecto DIY (do-it-yourself). Y vaya que funciona este truco; con tan solo 2,500 USD (1,300 si prefieres recibir los componentes y armarla tu mismo) puedes conectarla a tu computadora y comenzar a imprimir piezas en plástico ABS o PLA. Tal vez $2,500 suena todavía un poco elevado, pero si consideramos que las impresoras de otras compañías como Stratasys y Zcorp andan entre los $10,000 y $100,000 dólares.. el precio de Makerbot suena muy atractivo para cualquier creativo o entusiasta.

Aquí en designaholic hemos seguido de cerca las nuevas compañías como MGX que llevan la impresión 3D al extremo, y plataformas como Shapeways que te permiten imprimir y comercializar tus diseños, pero lo increíble de Makerbot es que pone esta tecnología en tu casa para que experimentes libremente. Puedes modelar tus propias piezas o descargar algunos diseños de su plataforma Thingverse. La impresora en sí lleva el nombre Thing-o-matic y hasta la fecha han vendido 4,000 maquinas. Va perfecto con el nuevo software Photofly de Autodesk que mencionamos la semana pasada (vean el post aquí).

Otra ventaja de Makerbot es que por su naturaleza DIY, las piezas no solo son fáciles de intercambiar y arreglar, también tienen un precio accesible. Las otras maquinas además de ser caras son difíciles de arreglar y la mayoría de las veces muy caro. Makerbot tiene todo su instructivo de reparación abierto para que lo puedas arreglar tu fácilmente y a un precio accesible sin tener que cambiar muchos componentes. Aquí un gráfico del New York Times donde explican como esta hecho un Makerbot.

Sophisticated and Minimal Sofa

Stripped of the unnecessary, Sofist is a wonderfully moderate approach to the sofa that proves that sometimes less really is more. The skeletal body flexes under super comfy cushions to mold to the user’s position while the underlying space provides plenty of room for storage or a cozy rest area for pets. On one side the wire framework supports an anchored flat surface for resting objects & on the other a unique way of filing away your magazines or books (particularly those that teach excellence & virtue).
