ACADIA 2022: Hybrids and Haecceities [Projects Catalog of the 42nd Annual Conference of the Association of Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 979-8-9860805-7-4]. University of Pennsylvania Stuart Weitzman School of Design. 27-29 October 2022. edited by M. Akbarzadeh, D. Aviv, H. Jamelle, and R. Stuart-Smith. 166-171. |
| summary |
Designed with Polyhedral Graphic Statics (PGS), a geometry-based structural form-finding method, Tortuca presents an efficient and innovative structural system constructed by the dry assembly of thirteen hollow glass units (HGU). It also proposes a new language for glass that is carefully treated, structurally informed, fabrication-aware, and environmentally responsible. |
