Architecture Project Material Fictions
This project explores robotic fabrication through the lens of spolia. Inspired by both historical and contemporary examples, it uses found objects with cultural or political resonance. By examining mass, figure, and disfiguration, the artifacts are digitally studied and reassembled. These new configurations generate precise instructions for a 6-axis robot, guiding how the objects are altered and how new structures are formed between them. The result is a form of spolia expressed as abstracted lines derived from plan and section drawings. A further development of the project involved an investigation of the physical model itself, examining various methods of turning a building or structure inside out, thereby challenging conventional spatial boundaries and material readings
