The brick pavilion in Ahmedabad

he project was conceptualized by students in a 3 week (Winter School 2016) course, Digital Crafts: Customised Bricks 1.1, conducted at Faculty of Architecture, CEPT University, Ahmedabad, India. Students were free to choose a specific site and program on Sabarmati Riverfront edge. A bounding box of the volume of 30 cubic meters (3 x 3 x 3 m) with the possibility to stretch the box keeping the same volume was given to start. This changed to 270 cubic meters
(10 x 6 x 4.5 m) while developing the design.
RhinoVAULT which is the Plug-In to Rhinoceros® emerged from research on structural form finding using the Thrust Network Analysis (TNA) approach to intuitively create and explore compression-only structures was introduced as a generative tool. Number and type of supports were site-specific. Five different designs were generated by students working in a group of two. Out of these, children’s play area was chosen to develop further

The project presents a craft-based construction approach to computation. An institutional collaboration between CEPT University, Hunnarshala & Karigarshala having common research interest brought this project to life.
