Digital / Computational Design
and other activities
INFORMATION BASED ARCHITECTURE
Specialisation at Master Studies (Architektura Informacyjna Programme) Two semesters studio-like profile course - joint classes with ASK (Architecture for Society of Knowledge) 02/2017-02/2018 including projects: Polis+ Rhizo.nom Capsule House |
PROGRAMMING LEARNING - C#
I have taken up C# firstly just as a step further from Grasshopper, but now, after some time and with some experience I understand it as one of the most important tools of nowadays designer. My learning experience with C#: Introduction to C# for Rhino and Grasshopper by Architektura Parametryczna Warsaw, Poland, 12/2017 Advanced C# for Rhino and Grasshopper by Long Nguyen in McNeel Barcelona, 03/2018 C# course at ALX! Warsaw, Poland, 06-07/2018 |
PIŁUJEMY KODY' WORKSHOPS
Architektura Parametryczna Summer Workshops, Piła, Poland 27/07-02/08/2015 Parametric Design and Fabrication Workshop held by Architektura Parametryczna and MS Design, finished with construction of four plywood forms, one of which was created with Grasshopper script/algorithm made by me (with a priceless help of the tutors). Great opportunity to face both parametric design and real materials/construction process. |
ARDUINO / ELECTRONICS
Learning electronics seems to be inevitable in today's world. Bringing the life and interaction to normally impassive realities. Modular Light Cloud Workshops 08-09/2014 (for details see below) Arduino Workshops organised by Student Society of Faculty of Architecture 16-18/12/2016 Production of the Interactive Stenography based on ECHO project (by Klementyna Jankiewicz) for the ROJA theatrical performance (dir. Monika Popiel) for Teatr Powszechny, Warsaw 08/2018 System of interactive, Wi-Fi based lighting for architectural models 09/2019 (work in progress) |
3D PRINTING
I'm interested in Rapid Prototyping methods as a 3D printing enthusiast and small 3D printer owner (from 2014). More about how I have assembled my own 3D printer, and what are my experiences with the 3D printing here. |
MODULAR LIGHT CLOUD WORKSHOPS
ASK SUMMER SCHOOL 2014 Parametric Design Workshop, organised by ASK (Architecture For Society of Knowledge) 08-09/2014 Workshops and Assembly of first structure. (as a participant of the workshops) 10-12/2014 Reshaping of the structure for the Monadology Exhibition at Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw, PL (as a student's team working on electronic devices leader) -> see more |
OSSA KRK WORKSHOPS
Polish Architectural Workshops, Cracow, Poland 12-19/07/2015 Intensive week of lectures, discussions and teamwork in search of answers to the given subject of 'Contra', in polish historical capital city of Kraków (Cracow) Extraordinary study of human conflict's anatomy, negotiating truths and speaking about values and beliefs in the complicated moment of not finding answer common for the whole group. Harmless truce in establishing map of the conflict was an answer itself - documenting our divergence as an act truthfulness and honesty to ourselves. |
GATHERING HALL
For Cracow, Poland Multi-purpose Gathering Hall for Cracow Commons under supervision of prof.Kondrat Kucza-Kuczyński designed with help of grasshopper script, I have created for this task, to shape and calculate the curvatures of the structure. Firstly conceptualised as a Youth Meeting place for Pope visit it then become the multi-purpose open hall for all kind of mass-events. Whatever is technical and do not need to be seen is covered underground. Above ground there is only stage and structure itself. |
PLAIN-AIR DRAWING
I have been taking part in both bigger and smaller plain-air drawing events for few years (since beginning of my drawing education at DOMIN Studio). Picture on the right: Plain-air drawing with my friends in Open Air Wooden Architecture Museum in Ciechanowiec, Poland |
ARCHITECTURAL STUDY-TRIPS AND PHOTOGRAPHY
Bigger and smaller voyages though Europe. Up to now I have visited places like: Copenhagen, Aarhus, Aalborg, Vejle, Middelfart in Denmark; Stockholm in Sweden, Trondheim in Norway; Prague in Czech Rep.; Firenze, Siena, Arezzo, Milan, Palermo and Siracusa in Italy; Vienna, Graz, Innsbruck in Austria; Berlin in Germany; London, Southampton, Bath, Canterbury, Salisbury (also Stonehenge!) in England; Gdańsk, Gdynia, Szczecin, Poznań, Toruń, Łódź, Katowice, Kraków and Warsaw (where I live) in Poland. More of my photos here. |
