Aluminium Mesh Surface: Basic Design Project

by Tuğrul Yazar | June 20, 2013 10:23

This group used aluminum expanded mesh in order to test its balance between structural capacity and weight. They folded different-sized sheets to create components, then assembled them creating a span of 2,5 meters approx. They managed to control the macro form by manipulating the component precisely. This year, the dominant discussion among the studio instructors was the context; how to include (or not include), manage, and think about the context, specifically the place these structures are built on. However, for a freshman-year Basic Design education, we act very carefully about including context in design cycles. Like group 1 (here), this group tends to surround a tree without touching it, just proving that it is well possible to do it “contextually” and also, answering the discussion between instructors.

*Students: Ömer Kirazoğlu, Osman Can Sözüneri, Suzan Bozfakıoğlu, Gökay Sapan, Emre Kaleci, Zeynep Danacıoğlu, Emine Gündoğan, Begüm Şardan, Yusuf Mıstıkoğlu
