Tactile Tiles⠀⠀
⠀⠀
During this task we explored the generative creation of patterns using Rhino and Grasshopper in order to design tiles with interesting tactile features. Through placing attractor points grids and cells were transformed. Image and graph mapping was used to create height-fields and varied topographies. Each student was asked to generate a set of three different patterns, out of which one was selected and 3D-printed as a 10 x 10cm tile.⠀

Handsfree Door Opener⠀
⠀
Door handles are amongst the most germ-infested objects and contamination of just a single doorknob can cause the spread of disease within hours. By using one’s elbow or arm instead of the hands, the dissemination of bacteria can be effectively reduced. A hands-free door opener is one option to remove the need for direct contact. Using tools of computational design and digital fabrication we wanted to provide our own solutions to address this issue. ⠀

In the short project THE AESTHETICS OF EFFICIENCY, students dealt with the question of how the production of 16boxes shelves can be made even more sustainable by finding a use for the residual materials generated during production. The result is a variety of furniture pieces that can be produced using digital manufacturing methods. ⠀

HAPPY NEW YEAR ⠀
from all of us at @materiability⠀
⠀
Even though #2020 was a challenge it also made us think about some of the things we do and take for granted. It encouraged us to learn new skills, relearn old ones and discard others. It was a year full of surprises, fear, uncertainty, and complaint but also an awareness of many things forgotten or suppressed. Our impact on the environment and how vulnerable we are as a species. Our dependence on each other as fellow humans. Our ability to quickly adapt, care and accept responsibility. ⠀
At #materiability we understand change always as an opportunity to move forward, to question old habits and to speculate about possible alternatives. ⠀
With this attitude we are more than excited about what the next year will offer.⠀
See you all healthy and happy in #2021.⠀

Dear global community of #material #designers, we need your advice!⠀
⠀
We have been growing several #Kombucha #leather samples. Our results have been pleasantly successful. As Kombucha leather is a #natural and #biodegradable material, we are now searching for a bio-based solution for making the material #waterproof. The material’s hydrophilic nature is the main limitation. We are hoping to find a way to solve this to expand the material's potential applications. ⠀
⠀
Do you have any suggestions?⠀

#Electroactive #Polymers (EAPs) are polymers that change their size, #shape or volume in response to a strong electrical field. In the field of “active materials” they stand out due to their large active deformation potential, high response speed, low density and improved resilience. They are extremely lightweight, inexpensive, fracture tolerant and compliant. ⠀

It proposes an #intelligent #learning #system which is adapted to the demands of users and remembers their preferences, such as seat position, light, temperature and #music. COR responds to different situations with a variety of light impulses. COR can help to create a more comfortable and individual #driving #experience. The system can, depending on the current situation, mediate safety and vice versa draw attention to potential hazards. the concept of COR can help to make car #sharing more individual and attractive.⠀

MODE2 is a project by Karl Breitling, Andreas Bindseil, David Cisar, Thomas Seela during a collaboration with @AUDI. The proposal for a #future center console consists of three separate modules, of which one was built prototypically in a 1:1 scale, that can change their position along a central rail in the middle of the car. The elements can thus be used independently, for more classical driving situations, or in unison to allow for centralized passenger communication, where all seats would be facing inwards.⠀

After an apprenticeship as an architectural draftsman and a bachelor’s degree in #jazz and #pop #music, he commenced his studies in #communicationdesign at Mainz University of Applied Sciences. Throughout this period, the focus was on promoting communication by incorporating additional disciplines such as #technology and human #interaction into the design for #prototype development. With the subsequent masters course @designhochschuleanhalt @hsanhalt, the design approach has shifted towards adding living materials in the form of #algae to the previous concept in order to expand the prototyping of products. Moreover, he received a #scholarship from the Living Architecture Systems Group (#LASG) in Canada.⠀

QUANTIFY ME - data driven materialization⠀
⠀
Research Collaboration with @Sinamostavafi between the Dessau Department of Design and the Dessau Institute of Architecture⠀
⠀
http://materiability.com/portfolio/quantifyme/⠀
⠀
The growing amount of data one constantly collects through smartdevices was examined from a design perspective. The abstractionof data, their eligibility and practicability to become a tool for design was evaluated in interdisciplinary teams of architecture and design students. Personal variations, situational dependencies and correlations between different strains of information were looked into, their comparability and combination tested. Methods to manipulate and translate the results were developed, resulting in a series of physical objects, manifested using an industrial robot as well as other digital fabrication procedures.⠀
