STUDIO BRIEF
STUDIO X - Parametric Collaborations.
Phase 1 (WS11) Course Summary:
The research brie or the WS11 was to design a concept villa or the21st century.
In highly urbanized, highly mobile societies the house becomes an issue
demanding urther research and investigation, where the consequences o
a materialistic society have devolved the idea o house to that o property.
Yet, the house is where everyones lie is ormed and where everyone orms
the home based on the living behaviours that stem out o social, amily
relationships etc.
The studios interest in the way a villa can become a ormal expression
or, one or a group o liestyles and values. This close relationship can
be amily, sexual, occasional, and proessional. A villa is a culmination
and the distillation o architectonic notions within a changing societal set-up. The design o the villa will respond to the contextual content. The
responsiveness o the design to the climate, the views, the site and the
urban environment or lack o, around it is crucial to the task o this research.
Phase 2 (SS12): Thesis; Team work & Collective Developments
Following the submissions in the frst semester the studio continues
to explore the notion o housing as a result o design agendas that can
be combined to deliver an outcome that can be implemented either as a
Masterplan, a city intervention, a tower or other large scale development.
The students have been asked to orm teams based on shared sensibilitiesand work ethics and to propose a thesis that underlines the teams design
interests and combined agenda.
The aim is to use the combined ideas into a larger architectural
proposition, fnd ways to mitigate problems and to propose ways to deal
with the multiplication/ prolieration o the concepts in felds o multiple
units.

It is located in Persepolis or Takht-e Jamsid (The City o Persians), Fars
Province, Iran. It is approximately 70 km northeast rom Iran modern city,
Shiraz. It was the ceremonial capital o Achaemenid Empire (ca. 550-
330BC), by knowing that Persepolis is an archeological site where traces
o ancient Persian human activity are ound, the methodology o learning,
observing, through Persepolis ruin or artiacts is a prerequisite. Archeolo-
gist villa tries to merge the ancient Persepolis study o proportions and
volume with digital architecture approach. My aim in this proposition is tocreate a new relationship that are related closely with the existing context
and content rom a specic site in order to be able to produce a new ele-
ment that are being infuenced by the existing site and also to dene the
new use and meaning that is suitable or 21st century villa requirement.
Having arrived in this 21st century which I ound its abundant complexity
that come rom inside and outside architectural elds, what is needed to
be reconsidered or architects are how the grasp thinking or particular
projects nowadays in the extensive observations with all ease rom the
advance technologies development without disobeying all the real aspects
o designing or society, and it has to be balanced with the considerationto what architecture or built orm that is done could provide in dynamic
society with dreams, projective, engage with reality, consideration o the
desire, and not to abandoned but to rethink and react to what are already
successul out there, refexivity, critical thought within the right specic
context.
In conclusion the villa idea is producing a new ratio and proportion either
or the overall orm or or the interior purposes that is tted to the users
both male and emale.

CONCLUSION
Ater merging three main topics /which were scanning process, excavation and continuous suraces techniques/ we concluded that the thesis project
aim is to demonstrate process o building in a desert condition with robotized processes which are being arranged with a ew strategies such as scanning
the terrain to know the topographical condition and classiying dierent materials to produce height map, identiying the highest rock location rom sand
surace, excavation strategy that is depending on the scan result, unctional arrangement distributed accordingly, series o deep cut to the lowest ground,
narrow pathway, by sintering the sand continuously will allow to create multi-layer spaces. We envisioned this proposal would be implemented in a larger
scale with low labor orces, less water usage or construction, emphasizing sun energy absorption, reducing heat gain.

ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
We are inspired by the invention o sand sintering solar system and also other technological development on the advanced tools or example robotic CNC
drilling machine, composite 3D printing machine, geological scanner which could enhance the architectural production not based on ready products but
instead being sel sucient, by reinventing the available source on site.
Decoration has evolved into a new paradigm or the relationship between structure, orm, and aesthetic in architecture.[] With the era o advancedtechnology the aesthetic has already embedded within the production o the overall objects or architectural orm that has a machine aesthetic in it.
Technology and natural resources are related to our current methodologies in manuacturing, to reveal new opportunities and test scenarios o architectural
production which is implemented within the process o optimizing the use o solar energy and power resins with silica that we ound in the sand.

ROBOTICS
BIOLOGICALLY-INSPIRED. HEXAPOD ROBOTS
X-RHEX: A HIGHLY MOBILE HEXAPEDAL ROBOT FOR SENSORIMOTOR TASKS
A hexapod robot is a mechanical vehicle that walks on six legs. Since a robot can be statically stable on three or more legs, a hexapod robot has a
great deal o fexibility in how it can move. I legs become disabled, the robot may still be able to walk. Many hexapod robots are biologically inspired by
Hexapoda locomotion. Hexapods may be used to test biological theories about insect locomotion, motor control, and neurobiology.
Using the internal IMU and a payload laser scanner, X-RHex can create a 3D point cloud o its surroundings. Six powerul motors actuate compliant legs,
allowing X-RHex to traverse a wide variety o terrains, including asphalt, grass, sand, mud, and rocks. By using a mil-spec rail mounted interace and
standard electrical connections, X-RHex can support a wide variety o payloads, making it a mobile laboratory on legs.

Barchan dunes is a crescent shaped dune whichcommonly formed in relatively flat sand surface,
limited supply of sand, and flow of wind from
one direction.
Barchan ridge is a row of connected barchan
dunes which occurs in relatively varying type
of sand surfaces, greater supply of sand.
Transverse dunes is a long asymetricaldune that form right angles of wind
direction, formed relatively from weak
winds and abundant supply of sand
with single long slip face.
Seif dune or longitudinal dune is a longdune (could be more than 100km long
and 100m high), the dune ridge is
symetrical and it has slipfaces on either
side, and it is formed by strong winds
at least from two directions.
Complex dune is a dune that is formedwhen the predominant wind are varying
therefore it is forming linear, star, and
reversing dunes.

We are proposing the site in Algeria, it is the largest country in Arica
and the Arab World, and it is covering approximately 2,400,000 sq km
o land area. The land are comprises o arable land which is 3.17%, per-
manent crop that is covering 0.28% and desert is 96.55% (in 2005) . We
are seeing this as a possibility to examine new material use, while alsoaddressing the desertication issue with our proposal o environmental
scientists village. The ranges o environmental concerns in Algeria are
biodiversity, Climate Change, Desertication, migration and poverty.
The site is located in El Bayadh province that is divided to 8 districts
and 22 municipalities. The desertication sensibility map showed that this
province is one o the extreme place toward desertication, thereore the
location o Environmental Scientists village will take place in this area,
where the nearest airport location is in El Abiodh Sidi Cheikh. It will be
approximately 100km rom El Abiodh Sidi Cheikh Where the village will
start developing the method o anti desertication and get connected
with the adjacent city.

From the computational fuid analysis that we understood at the lower level o the sand surace that absorbs heat, there is an urge to add shading to
reduce the heat gain over the sand surace that will allow the area to be inhabited. The airfow rate and wind fow are parallel on the closest part rom the
sand surace is slower and where there are no obstacle above ground the speed increase.

We are seeing erosion processes in the desert as a device to shape the site and to create aesthetic eects in the architectonic production. In this case wind
act as an active agent that changes the building and environment through time. By studying and simulating the erosion process allow us to manipulate and

Inspired by wormhole idea given that the shortest path between spaces are created by connecting spaces through continuous surace which are arranged
to have connection between one space to other spaces through biurcating condition that will minimize the building area, especially or specic condition
like in a desert. We envisioned that this topological conguration is working dynamically/harmonically as above ground structure and base structure as well
and by creating this type o conguration will allow or space expansion underground which are ideal or desert condition.

PRINTING PROCESS
From the optimized pattern on site dierent densities or printing was tested, the desirable consideration is to create the right balance or desert living
condition, which are characterized mainly solid in order to protect rom direct sunlight, maintaining interior temperature to be cooler than outside
temperature, porous material in micro scale.

We are testing the structure that are given by the proximity structure algorithm with various cases by increasing the depth o structural elements, adding
connection rom main beams to secondary beams to get optimization load distribution, and or a specic condition that the structure are spanning too ar,
at several segments we are adding secondary post, and touch the ground.

CONCLUSION
To be able to occupy desert or a better living condition there are several basic
understanding that was driven rom our CFD analysis which inormed the design
to be adjusted accordingly.
Architectural intentions were driven to mitigate the extreme condition in desert.

Architectural intentions were driven to mitigate the extreme condition in desert.
By adding structural elements that works as shading system as well as a
structure or unctions or building, we are allowing horizontal and undergroundexpansion.
The understanding o wind pattern will reveal architectonic qualities that are
depending on time: or example, rom a range o 50 years the sand sintered
building will get deteriorated by ventiacts or yardang. In the same time the
design process is extended with series o uture predictions.
The use o continuous geometries optimizes the distances between spaces, the
amount o material used, and creates heterogeneity in the space arrangements
within the given existing landscape. In the same time, we will create an articial
landscape that is contrasting but adapting to the topographical conditions. Theintegration between building and landscape are ormed by the sand 35 repose
angle condition that is constraining the printing process.
Series o retaining walls are being introduced to protect the building rom the
extreme environmental conditions, as well as narrow cuts or openings to control
the light intensity, narrow pedestrian pathways that are protected, striated wall
conditions, integrated urniture rom materials, shading system that are combin-
ing abric or textile that wouldnt increase the structural load but in the same
time intensiying the habitable shaded area.
Scanning the landscape to nd the best location or structural oundations allowus to extrapolate urther to other locations. Swarming robots are quite success-
ul on creating network organizations adapted to unknown sites.
