| summary |
Convergence celebrates the thriving, vibrant, and rich heritage of excellence of the University of Nebraska Medical Center through materialized concepts that embed change, transformation, and contemplation. The project incorporates the most advanced methods and innovations in digital and robotic fabrication with the integration of timeless and contextually sensitive materials that interact with the sun and human perception. The project features stainless steel wire arc additive manufacturing through robotic 3D printing, nonstandard CNC machined polycarbonate panels laminated with responsive wavelength-dependent dichroic film, and stainless-steel stiffener rings. Sited in the new Northwall Plaza, Convergence serves as the outdoor threshold to the buildings and the campus welcome center facilitating an ideal setting for conversations, fellowship, and engagement by students and faculty. |
