Several media showed high interest in our research project shelters made out of paper which tried to develop building components and adequate construction typologies for building temporary housing out of paper. This prooves that we are on the right track and confirms us to go further with developing building components made out of paper. Soon we will set up new reserach projects within this topic with lots of interesting partners! press release university of Darmstadt articl

Our 3D-printed facade knot is not only discussed online but found its way to printed magazines as well. German magazine "fassadentechnik" featured a good article about the topic and include interviews with the research partners as well. The preview of the article can be found online here. And the german podcast can be found here. #3DDruck #3Dprinting #facade #research #innovation #NextStudio #lecture #Frankfurt #evenet #wicona #computation #Rhino3D #Csharp #parametricDesign #

couple of months ago we already wrote about our research project building shelters out of paper (read the article here: https://www.imagine-computation.com/post/research-shelters-made-out-of-paper). The demonstrator for the shelter is finally built and will be evaluated during the next weeks and months. This will be the start of further development in building shelters out of paper. #sustainability #paper #research #cardboard #TUDarmstadt #ImagineComputation #ZukunftBau #shel

Wir freuen uns beim ersten Fassaden Digital Symposium dabei sein zu dürfen! Die FH Kärnten veranstaltet in Kooperation mit bauinformation.com zum ersten Mal das Fassaden Symposium als digitale Veranstaltung. Das Event findet am 17.09.2020 von 8:45 - 19 Uhr statt und wartet mit sieben Referenten rund ums Thema Fassade auf. Mit dabei sind u.a. die Kollegen Erwin Trommer / Frener&Reifer und Lars Anders / Priedemann. Nachdem wir bereits vor kurzem einen Live-Vortrag zum Thema Aut

As the initial presentation of our 3D-printed facade knots on March 26 has been cancelled because of Corona we had been working with our partners on a new way for presenting the results of our research: On Wednesday May 27th 4 pm you will be able to see the presentation as online event live streamed from Next Facade Studio in Frankfurt. Presenters will be: DI Martin Manegold (Imagine Computation) Prof. Dr. Ulrich Knaack (TU Darmstadt) Kai Kegelmann (Kegelmann Technik) Martin

Although our daily life is quite different in times of Corona we still keep working on our projects. Next to our professional projects we are working on several research projects and one of them is developing shelters and short term housings made out of paper. Basic idea is to have a modular prefabricated system that can be quickly assembled by two people. The single elements can be combined in different ways to build a variety of different housings from tiny shelters to larg

During this years "5th FACHDIALOG FASSADENPLANUNG" on March 26, we will present the first full-size mock-up of a facade element with 3D printed facade nodes at Next Studio Frankfurt. The facade element is part of the development Project within the ZIM network Building AM. The research partners here are the companies Kegelmann Technik, Rossmanith Fenster + Fassade and imagine computation as well as the Institute ISM+D of the TU Darmstadt. The form-fitting Connection of facade
