The second project will focus on developing a hybrid design workflow using available ad hoc fabrication means. The groups will collaborate remotely to share a concept, digital resources, and expertise, but each member will independently implement a fabrication process and render sample artifacts. A central thesis of Human Machine Virtuosity is that human skill wielding

Project 2: Architectural Intervention Design System
The second project will focus on a site of your choice within Museumlab as a location for an architectural intervention using a plaster form. The work could be a continuation of your first project or begin from a new premise. As before, you will be creating a design workflow usable by multiple authors, then demonstrating

Project 1: Tile Design System
For this first project you will work in groups to develop a proof-of-concept design system, then apply it to produce two annular tiles fabricated in plaster. The resulting tiles will be sized to fill a section of the arch in the Museumlab studio lab space. The key objective is the development and documentation of a
