It is moldable, strong, long lasting, and because it goes from liquid to solid, it is able to take on many organic forms. This thesis looks at the creation of a new casting method using smart meshes which rely on concrete’s liquid properties to inform the final shapes. Inspired by Frei Otto, we have created hanging mesh surfaces, but unlike traditional funicular structures, we control the final shape by differing patterns and elasticities allowing for the creation of complex and efficient geometries without the large use of heavy formwork. Instead, using robotic processes for TPU rubber 3D printing, we are able to fabricate thin mesh molds that respond to prescribed deformation during the casting process. The mesh designs are coded from a three-dimensional surface which is digitally “smashed” using python into a two-dimensional mesh. This “smart” mesh retains the original surface’s geometry by changing its cell size and by curving the extruded line until it is an equivalent length to the three-dimensional surface. Doing so allows a much larger mesh to be printed on a smaller heated table. Given specific fixed anchor points, the mesh is then hung and subjected to the weight of the concrete thus causing it to deform downwards into the desired shape. This process creates inverted surfaces, best suited for medium to small scale panelized projects. Our final design is an outdoor shelter with seating elements to showcase the complex geometries that this process is capable of creating. The project highlights the use of computational design and digital fabrication tools to explore experimental processes for casting concrete, focusing on reduction of material used for formwork fabrication to achieve highly complex geometric casts. <img width="1920" height="1080" width_o="1920" height_o="1080" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/54e1c568704fac47bdaac88cd5b38c6dfe6c9bc62556d09c3ae596c6d787eded/Slide6.jpeg" data-mid="84352775" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/54e1c568704fac47bdaac88cd5b38c6dfe6c9bc62556d09c3ae596c6d787eded/Slide6.jpeg" /><img width="4872" height="2740" width_o="4872" height_o="2740" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d29ecb4befe06ae655f1b17bcf1224f5e2a65f7e94ada3d5d739e1227117f7fc/render-1-v2-ryancohnumich.edu.jpg" data-mid="84352824" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d29ecb4befe06ae655f1b17bcf1224f5e2a65f7e94ada3d5d739e1227117f7fc/render-1-v2-ryancohnumich.edu.jpg" /> https://ryanwcohn.com/Mutable-Mesh-Prototyping Thu, 01 Oct 2020 23:07:29 +0000 Ryan W.

By starting with a 12’ tall cone, we made it into a chair by booleaning out masses. It is full scale, and the formwork was made by hotwiring foam with a Kuka robot. <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8f9727b6426b63a3f0e22be33097bdfe174753f2eadc145718ab102d3261a6c8/IMG_8795_edited.jpg" data-mid="84355590" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8f9727b6426b63a3f0e22be33097bdfe174753f2eadc145718ab102d3261a6c8/IMG_8795_edited.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/192e112134d2a481513c702e5a3118dadd2284449bf67f084bf4ca05cecf6df3/IMG_8790_edited.jpg" data-mid="84355591" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/192e112134d2a481513c702e5a3118dadd2284449bf67f084bf4ca05cecf6df3/IMG_8790_edited.jpg" /> <img width="721" height="721" width_o="721" height_o="721" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8fd7c501a5049b343fd8412273cce3de389a713ebaf8ee800501e2ac81e6c9a6/in-situ_seat.gif" data-mid="85033306" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/721/i/8fd7c501a5049b343fd8412273cce3de389a713ebaf8ee800501e2ac81e6c9a6/in-situ_seat.gif" /> <img width="2419" height="3024" width_o="2419" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f9551eb704b6e6026745e680aa966e8442b3a4d39d3096d37bc573f0fcd6db17/IMG_5867.jpg" data-mid="85032784" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f9551eb704b6e6026745e680aa966e8442b3a4d39d3096d37bc573f0fcd6db17/IMG_5867.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="3780" width_o="3024" height_o="3780" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c1a0adce07f6e9cd44f10aea81a5ec060c2a2ff619f2e64bce0be359e63c44f0/IMG_5900-copy.jpg" data-mid="85032789" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c1a0adce07f6e9cd44f10aea81a5ec060c2a2ff619f2e64bce0be359e63c44f0/IMG_5900-copy.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="3024" width_o="3024" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/9efeae2fd3e75acce1c255455f3a30b32b7a5323ca29245faab2f73c83eb3b0e/IMG_8827-copy.jpg" data-mid="85033881" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/9efeae2fd3e75acce1c255455f3a30b32b7a5323ca29245faab2f73c83eb3b0e/IMG_8827-copy.jpg" /> <img width="1335" height="2002" width_o="1335" height_o="2002" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/da3df61ce048700be6d4664d9ef51a8c4b1005974682e2da2642e7b73fb5c1ad/2020-Portfolio-Digital-7.jpg" data-mid="85032657" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/da3df61ce048700be6d4664d9ef51a8c4b1005974682e2da2642e7b73fb5c1ad/2020-Portfolio-Digital-7.jpg" /> https://ryanwcohn.com/About-the-Market Tue, 06 Oct 2020 16:45:06 +0000 Ryan W.

The actor network diagram (below) serves as the project thesis. The project addresses two concepts related to the studio’s focus on inherently public property: 1) narrow, movement-oriented spaces, which are inherently public spaces, particularly due to their utility in commerce, and 2) customs involving free speech, which can act alongside commercial practices as socializing practices with infinite returns to scale. The design concept sharply delineates narrow rights-of-way intersecting with the site and develops their use as inherently public property by situating free speech customs within them, connecting city hall to peripheral locations where agents of the public already convene and participate. <img width="4709" height="3063" width_o="4709" height_o="3063" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/75b3bf1e26ec6d79bba32cd6642a7554b940737d9e9e61d4d4126c424a7a42b8/ANT-20181218.png" data-mid="84356914" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/75b3bf1e26ec6d79bba32cd6642a7554b940737d9e9e61d4d4126c424a7a42b8/ANT-20181218.png" /> ︎Lansing, Michigan <img width="9600" height="5400" width_o="9600" height_o="5400" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fd4998f8b84065024dd4382dac510c20ae857822ac16e59bdc5f576863aed2b1/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-5-copy.jpg" data-mid="84356928" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fd4998f8b84065024dd4382dac510c20ae857822ac16e59bdc5f576863aed2b1/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-5-copy.jpg" /> Our context research shaped two positions: 1) Lansing has an existing network of productive neighborhood associations. We found that these self-organized groups generally choose a meeting location based on proximity and that they share common goals including crime reduction, code compliance issues, and collaboration with other neighborhood groups. They present an opportunity to increase city-wide civic engagement.2) Another line of context research revealed a tenuous relationship between local and state governments (the current city hall is across the street from the state legislature), indicating a need to enliven a municipal identity currently overshadowed by the presence of the capitol. <img width="4350" height="5250" width_o="4350" height_o="5250" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8e525fbc0d5b17d7f7a56923f3445a9ebfecd7f2262312276f032513dc93bd57/NEIGHBORHOOD-ASSOCIATION-MAP.png" data-mid="84357396" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8e525fbc0d5b17d7f7a56923f3445a9ebfecd7f2262312276f032513dc93bd57/NEIGHBORHOOD-ASSOCIATION-MAP.png" /> Context Research <img width="5208" height="4161" width_o="5208" height_o="4161" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0b0feaf6906e1ee76ea6381b2aac906a83c75bf642b49c3e33c54377b5892dc4/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-12.png" data-mid="84357531" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0b0feaf6906e1ee76ea6381b2aac906a83c75bf642b49c3e33c54377b5892dc4/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-12.png" />1885 Sandborn Map of Site <img width="4800" height="2703" width_o="4800" height_o="2703" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/848de3d4347709d1ed12df4385818243f325fecd7858daf8bc17eef4847cf98e/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-1.jpg" data-mid="84357535" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/848de3d4347709d1ed12df4385818243f325fecd7858daf8bc17eef4847cf98e/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-1.jpg" /> 2018 Google Map of Site <img width="3000" height="1688" width_o="3000" height_o="1688" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/bf1fb99ad9dfff7b6f9f138a283e98db53c1cb0b02a481fdd3db9a3e91d3273e/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-3.jpg" data-mid="84357583" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/bf1fb99ad9dfff7b6f9f138a283e98db53c1cb0b02a481fdd3db9a3e91d3273e/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-3.jpg" /> <img width="2848" height="4288" width_o="2848" height_o="4288" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/98f97fe3f1ff6a7e6589872d2e392cd88e08fc9357bfe7e8d33aec33fbdc20cf/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-16.jpg" data-mid="84357604" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/98f97fe3f1ff6a7e6589872d2e392cd88e08fc9357bfe7e8d33aec33fbdc20cf/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-16.jpg" /> <img width="4288" height="2848" width_o="4288" height_o="2848" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fa8693aa9b9af2d9f48fd1ecaf718b9ea8cb5e1611805ee13c4d146d1e006fc1/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-20.jpg" data-mid="84357612" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fa8693aa9b9af2d9f48fd1ecaf718b9ea8cb5e1611805ee13c4d146d1e006fc1/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-20.jpg" /> <img width="4288" height="2848" width_o="4288" height_o="2848" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e413036f7fc5bb322be70a26f232dfd95cc01161b8d248bf34246fe7f4ca2b3c/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-19.jpg" data-mid="84357611" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e413036f7fc5bb322be70a26f232dfd95cc01161b8d248bf34246fe7f4ca2b3c/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-19.jpg" /> <img width="2848" height="4288" width_o="2848" height_o="4288" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8766b95cf01da78689bb397c39fb9585ac0880dfa16ea38874e0b7230c20b606/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-17.jpg" data-mid="84357607" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8766b95cf01da78689bb397c39fb9585ac0880dfa16ea38874e0b7230c20b606/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-17.jpg" /> <img width="4288" height="2848" width_o="4288" height_o="2848" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f0d06877e8f08e947401fb45705d6a91c23b6a1ba3c63df8518f60ed01017ffe/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-10.jpg" data-mid="84357601" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f0d06877e8f08e947401fb45705d6a91c23b6a1ba3c63df8518f60ed01017ffe/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-10.jpg" /> <img width="4288" height="2848" width_o="4288" height_o="2848" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d231f93391f7ccc56681ff1d0f501ad4aabe5824bb0da3107ac5a05e69a45bc7/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-2.jpg" data-mid="84357564" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d231f93391f7ccc56681ff1d0f501ad4aabe5824bb0da3107ac5a05e69a45bc7/r-r_final-review-presentation_20181218-2.jpg" /> The existing parking lot marks the intersection of several narrow, defunct rights-of-way with high potential for inherently public activities. Most are already city-owned, one is an abandoned railroad corridor still owned by Pennsylvania Lines. The 1885 Sanborn map reveals the historical significance of this convergence of rights-of-way in what was then Lansing’s commercial and industrial center, before the locus of energy shifted to the state capitol district in the mid 1900s. Today, Old Town hosts a mix of industry, design firms, law firms and small businesses, as well as a lively arts district well-suited to interactive, performative spaces.

Accent WallAt the building scale, a facade type composed of tinted switchable and LED-integrated glazing lines the site’s narrow passages, creating a surface rich with broadcast content. It contrasts with a more neutral facade type assigned to the courtyard. <img width="2700" height="2700" width_o="2700" height_o="2700" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/d190302d23e87fc3a074116568955e2096bb22554a68e6c09d3ee091d4d95d49/spatial-policy-diagrams-20181218.png" data-mid="84357643" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/d190302d23e87fc3a074116568955e2096bb22554a68e6c09d3ee091d4d95d49/spatial-policy-diagrams-20181218.png" /> <img width="2700" height="2700" width_o="2700" height_o="2700" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0d17fa5f440244075fb3bfc91e9ebb3d7bc5ec62454763cf2342daa7bf76a93c/spatial-policy-diagrams-201812182.png" data-mid="84357644" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0d17fa5f440244075fb3bfc91e9ebb3d7bc5ec62454763cf2342daa7bf76a93c/spatial-policy-diagrams-201812182.png" /> Broadcast PracticesAt the municipal scale, citizens will continue to gather at neighborhood association meeting places, but will have the ability to interact with other citizens and government organizations through a two-way broadcast system, centered on the inherently public spaces at city hall. Delineated Right-of-Way&nbsp; At the scale of the site, where we identified inherently public potential in abandoned or invisible rights-of-way, we allowed the architecture to snap to property lines, strongly framing these spaces.

The legs are tapered and angled in order to distribute weight efficiently. The connection pieces were cut using a water jet and were not welded; the design mimics the tapering of the legs. The tops of the stools were milled and painted black. The top of the table is an MDF board spraypainted gray. I then laid out a Ponti-inspired geometric pattern of triangles, formed into hexagons, which I cut from four different colors of construction paper and glued to the top. The table top was then coated in a high-gloss resin finish. <img width="4032" height="2880" width_o="4032" height_o="2880" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ca4ee14045d10cc34c817034715303694f68919165328cff4302a13ab8606bbe/IMG_1482-copy.jpg" data-mid="84676135" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ca4ee14045d10cc34c817034715303694f68919165328cff4302a13ab8606bbe/IMG_1482-copy.jpg" /> <img width="2783" height="1988" width_o="2783" height_o="1988" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/3d5561097e50585fdc06b6ee9acafc7d9dfedc92208259528c71cc390e20f4e2/IMG_3295.jpg" data-mid="84675625" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/3d5561097e50585fdc06b6ee9acafc7d9dfedc92208259528c71cc390e20f4e2/IMG_3295.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="2160" width_o="3024" height_o="2160" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ddfdc2672c31e9febdbbd716ea759edc874a0b50565b3e89fb535028f4c562f8/IMG_3316.jpg" data-mid="84675611" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ddfdc2672c31e9febdbbd716ea759edc874a0b50565b3e89fb535028f4c562f8/IMG_3316.jpg" /> Process https://ryanwcohn.com/Mobili-da-Pranzo-Sgabelli Mon, 05 Oct 2020 17:41:43 +0000 Ryan W.
