The IAAC program Open Thesis Fabrication 2017-18 (OTF) proposes to design and construct 1:1 architectural elements that take advantage of the latest computational tools, additive manufacturing process and the great thermodynamic properties of adobe to achieve passive performative system for a bioclimatic architecture.

The wall challenge Walls is the occasion to print thin surfaces and explore the relationship between the geometry and the structural behaviour in adobe printing. When addressing structural properties in 3d printing, one should consider two main aspects: the structural integrity during the printing process, that is while the material is wet/uncured, and the one […]

Workshop objectives The general objective was to create a habitat for a bird that keeps a cool temperature taking advantage of self-shading and thermal conductivity. This workshop was engaged with the following topics: Double layering printing Thermal conductivity Solar incidence and sun-path (the birdhouses have an orientation) Cavity filling

IAAC BUILDs – OTF 2017 – Workshop #1 Brief Zeer Pot Context A pot-in-pot refrigerator, clay pot cooler or zeer (Arabic: زیر ) is an evaporative cooling refrigeration device which does not use electricity. It uses a porous outer earthenware pot, lined with wet sand, contains an inner pot (which can be glazed to prevent […]

This project aimed to explore whether that is possible to design and construct a multi-storey habitat, out of a sustainable material like adobe, within robotic additive fabrication in a dense urban context. Additive manufacturing in architecture is still in early stages. Although there are few projects that tried to face this approach, it is still […]

The book finally published! When I was working on my Master thesis, there was no reference about parametric design in Persian language. I had to study and translate lots of English books and thesis and essays in order to prepare mine. This book is the result of my finding in this way. It took two year […]
