The materials we used was translucent PLA for the 3D printed formwork, and fiber-reinforced concrete.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>We worked on strategies for integrating both of those materials in the final product in order to produce translucent concrete components. This is achieved by preinstalling light shafts on the formwork, that remain on the mass of the concrete component after the formwork is removed.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The design was achieved through parametric modelling where the fabrication constraints where gradually integrated through experimentation with the technique. The morphology of the surfaces and the position of the light shafts are determined computationally using primarily Fractal Brownian Noise.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-243\" src=\"http:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cov.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1462\" height=\"976\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cov.jpg 1462w, https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cov-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cov-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cov-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cov-973x650.jpg 973w, https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cov-508x339.jpg 508w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1462px) 100vw, 1462px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-242\" src=\"http:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Screenshot-2018-03-21-09.16.36-copy.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"2736\" height=\"1146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Screenshot-2018-03-21-09.16.36-copy.png 2736w, https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Screenshot-2018-03-21-09.16.36-copy-300x126.png 300w, https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Screenshot-2018-03-21-09.16.36-copy-768x322.png 768w, https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Screenshot-2018-03-21-09.16.36-copy-1024x429.png 1024w, https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Screenshot-2018-03-21-09.16.36-copy-973x408.png 973w, https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Screenshot-2018-03-21-09.16.36-copy-508x213.png 508w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2736px) 100vw, 2736px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"page\" title=\"Page 6\">\n<div class=\"section\">\n<div class=\"layoutArea\">\n<div class=\"column\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In collaboration with Alexander Enz &amp; Matteo Lomaglio, ETH dFab<\/p>\n<p>Photo Credit: Tom Mundi<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FDM 3d printing, concrete casting<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":241,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[75,6,46,74,79],"tags":[47,48],"class_list":["post-240","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-3d-printing","category-computational-design","category-digital-fabrication","category-grasshopper","category-mas-project","tag-dfab","tag-ethz"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/240","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=240"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/240\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":301,"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/240\/revisions\/301"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/241"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=240"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=240"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ioannamitropoulouarch.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=240"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
