3D printing clay @EKWC

Working at Sundaymorning@ekwc; exploring the possibilities of 3D printing ceramics for architectural use.

 

printing clay My residency at EKWC is part of a research project into producing sustainable architecture from local materials. By translating the knowledge of traditional building methods to the contemporary context of architecture, I explore the possibilities of digital fabrication techniques. Designing for digital fabrication requires a renewed understanding of materials and manufacturing which I have worked to develop further during the work period  of residence by making computer models and producing prototypes. By doing so I explore both functional and esthetic qualities of the digital production in clay.
Sundaymorning@ekwc is an international workplace where artists, designers and architects explore the technical and artistic possibilities of ceramics. Sundaymorning@ekwc operates as an artist-in-residence centre and as a centre of excellence. Its aim is to promote the development of ceramic art, design and architecture. The residency is part of my research into the possibilities of digital manufacturing in architecture funded by the Creative Industries Fund NL


The research is made possible with the generous support of the Creative Industries Fund NL

Floating exhibition pavilions

Honorable mention in the competition ‘Casa Casla’ Almere
2×4=24 is a design project for two floating exhibition pavilions in Almere. One of the pavilions is meant to be used as an architecture exhibition space, the other as an archaeological exhibition space. Read more »
