The
DreamWeaver project is currently being
exhibited and the
4th Architectural Beijing Biennalle (and previously exhibited at the
Design HUB Museum in Barcelona).



The Dreamweaver project explores the emergence of an architectural system through a symbiotic recyclage of technology(knitting machines) and material(plastic, yearn, copper, etc).
Knitted meshes allow the formation of knots , not requiring any other type of material but the knitted one; from these typologies of knots, a bottom-up structural system emerges, reconnecting one knitted profile to the next, and so on.
The Dreamweaver is a
CNC knitting machine that propels an emergent structural/sustainable system , outcome of a computation protocol between
Rhinoscript,
Grasshopper,
Arduino and
Processing, where the algorithmic model is progressively developed through
Structural Logics,
Programatic Logics,
Fabrication and
Assemblage Logics.
