While the cushion or pneu production is running on full throttle we also had to take care of the
wooden structure. These elements were developed by the structural engineering students of Prof. Schaefer and produced by Pit Maier and his team in the woodworking shop of the faculty of architecture.
And to teach the students how much effort it is to make all of these parts he handed over a list of the production details. Quite handy ! Without these two experts down in the shop our entire workshop would have been much more difficult. Its also the first time our Dr. Bucky Lab experienced such a great support.
In order to give the engineers a proper base for their assembling session tomorrow we took the time today and made everything black and of course we did it bucky lab style ...fashionable in an paper apron ..
this blog is dedicated to the Bucky Lab from the TU Delft faculty of Architecture. Within the mastercourse we design, develop and at the end build architecture and building construction related prototypes. Its a "get your hands dirty" approach in which the students learn how to translate concepts from sketch into working prototypes. We try to live the spirit of buckminster fuller: what ever you can imagine, you can also build!
