Milan Design Week - INTERFACES

This project was completed in partnership with Dassault Systèmes, the creators of CATIA, the software used to design and deliver the majority of Morphosis work. My role was to help create several of the animations projected on a series of large scale rotating surfaces. As these surfaces rotated, my scripts helped to highlight alignments between form and function inherent to the Morphosis design language. The goal of our work was to abstract environmental performance and formal qualities in order to show how they are inherently connected in the design process.

 

Scrubbing and Remapping Data

As a procedural designer on the project, I wrote a series of scripts that ripped environmental data off of building enclosures and landscape design. My scripts then animate and re-map this data onto the building enclosures themselves.

A Manifold Ethos

We suspended a neutral exhibit enclosure and three white screens a foot above the ground. This highlighted the capacity of our firm’s design language to connect to itself in myriad orientations and to operate successfully while divorced from a physical context.

Rotating Projection

As three massive panels rotated in our darkened and hanging enclosure, our animation was split and projection-mapped to highlight relationships across projects and bewteen elements of the Morphosis design language.
