Throughout h is tor y, fabr ics have p layed an impor t ant suppor t ing ro le in the shaping archi tectural in ter iors , typ ica l ly as uphols ter y for furn i ture or decorat ive wal l cover ings . Increas ingly, text i les are breaking free of wal l s and furn i tureto become dominant space-defin ing e lements - sof t s t ructures . On the f loor of the ICFF, Parsons s tudents created an exper iment al ins t a l lat ion that explored text i les as sof t s t ructures . Sponsored by Carnegie Fabr ics , the ins t a l lat ion wi l l be constructed by Xorel , a Cradle- to-Cradle cer t i fied text i le invented by the company.
The s tudent ’s fina l ins t a l lat ion, an overhead canopy composed of s imple fo lded fabr ic pyramids , i s the cu lminat ion of a semester- long ser ies of fabr ic invest igat ions . Taking advant age of the proper t ies inherent in paper-backed Xorel fabr ic , the s tudents not only des igned the fo lded form of the modular t i les , but a lso the pat tern of the d ig i t a l ly pr inted fabr ic .

C R E AT I N G A F I E L D : T O D I S A R R A N G EELEMENTS OF SPACE, TECTONICS & SURFACERHINOCEROS 4.0 | 3D NURB MODELING PROGRAMWE HAD TO CHOOSE A WORD FROM RICHARD SERRA’S VOCABULARY LIST TO CREATE A FIELD OF COMPONENTS THAT ARE BASED ON A SYSTEMATIC SET OF RULES.
This pro ject was to get bet ter acquainted with Photoshop, AutoCAD, and Rhino with VRay. Firs t , I took photographs of something in the urban environment that gave a gr idded pattern, an i rregular pat tern and a shal low re l ief pat tern . From there, I extracted informat ion us ing the d i f ferent programs to create a fie ld condi t ion . From the three images , I created a h inge movement that would generate one lof ted shel l component which would be used to create a fie ld condi t ion .
“Fie ld Condi t ions refers to des ign s trategies based on the aggregat ion of smal l , se l f - s imi lar par ts to create local d i f ference whi le maint a in ing overal l coherence; fie ld condi t ions impl ies the des ign of sys tems and assemblages , pay ing c lose at tent ion to intervals and the spaces between th ings .” - St an Al len

INVESTIGATIONS | WATER AND FIRE ELEMENTS IN THE HOME

This studio, through direct engagement with architectural precedents and social contexts, investigated the single-family house’s uneasy positioning between persistent sentimentality and heroic vision in order to offer more potent possibilities for its role in contemporary, culturally infused environments. The Water House started by looking at the Schindler | Chase House by R.M. Schindler in Los Angeles, CA. From this provocative study, questions arose from Schindler’s design of sunken gardens and numerous fireplaces and I began to compile a repetoire of images and other residential studies pertaining to water and fire and their role in the home as well as look at the extraodinary lengths we go to in order to have these elements incorporated into our home. From there, I began to become interested in the absence and presence of water so this house was put in the desert, Palm Springs. In Palm Springs, there can be an abundant lack of rain water or a deluge of rain in one day so this house mediates that abd brings in a visual reminder of this natural occurrence with the design of rain water troughs that run through the house. I wanted to focus on the ephemeral water, or water that waits (reflecting pools and swimming pools) and water that moves (the rain running through the house).

STELLARIA HOLOSTEAAKA | CHICKWEED SEEDPHOTO FROM SEEDS, A TIME CAPSULE OF LIFE
The first part of the semester began with an analytical study of a particular seed to analyze as well as study maps of New York City. After thorough research, we had to imagine New York City in the future with possible apocalyptic conditions wherein we had to house seeds. Some examples referenced in the initial research phase were projects such as Kew Gardens, the Svalbard Seed Vault in Norway, or the UK Pavilion for Shanghai World Expo 2010 by Heatherwick Studio.

We were asked to consider in the beginning of the project whether we were preservationists or evolutionists. Through inhaling information of the morphology of greater New York City and Manhattan and analyzing the programmatic transformations - my project begins to criticize the current trend of residential housing as well as the density of Manhattan and suggests a step back in densification because of environmental changes that are speculative or rapidly accelerating. My focus was on the sea level rise. Our assignment was to design a seed vault which would house 100,000 visible seeds and additional storage for 200,000 seeds. The assignment also included residential pods and a water retaining system all within Madison Square Park.

The res ident ia l program ent a i led development of new typology for h igh-r i se urban res idences with the intent to break away from the se l f -cont a ined mass ing of bui ld ing form and i so lated by e levator-s top f loor-by- f loor s t acking of apar tment levels with apar tments a l igned a long corr idors and typ ica l ly hav ing out look only in a s ingle d irect ion, and i f prov ided, balconies of l imited area. In developing a new typology the format ive chal lenges are the shaping of the indiv idual res idences and the grouping of the res idences around common open space forming the center of a neighborhood community.

This pro ject was an introduct ion to creat ing a brand. The c lass created random word combinat ions which each of us p icked from, however we could not p ick our own combinat ion. From there, we had to create a company. We had to des ign the logo, packaging, and most impor t ant ly the ident i ty of the company through explorat ions in graphic des ign. The word combinat ion I chose was DarkLight which I imagined as a sunglass company.

IN THE MANNER OF A 19TH CENTURY PHOTOGRAPHER
The person I chose to t r y and shoot photographs in the manner of i s Henr y Peach Robinson. He was a not able 19th centur y photographer who used an i l lus trat ive s ty le f rom paint ing, find ing the s implest th ing to be a wor thy subject for ar t i s t ic represent at ion. Typica l ly when I shoot photos , i t i s a product by one of two methods . I t i s e i ther a snap and shoot , hoping to capture with my camera what I see with my eye which more t imes than not , never does the real l i fe exper ience just ice. Or, the second method would be to arduous ly set up my camera and fidd le with a l l the set t ings unt i l I hope to receive, again , what I see with my eye, which again gets the same resul ts as the fi rs t method. I do not find H.P. Robinson’s subject matter fore ign as I l ike to t r y and do the same. The end resul ts are much more my concentrat ion. The ass ignment concerned me as I thought the cabs and hot dog vendors would ru in the integr i ty of th is ass ignment but I be l ieve th is par t icu lar photographer would l ike the ever y day mundance exper iences to be caught in a photograph.
