Wrong Column(s)
Wrong Columns was an exploration of aggregation of geometry that, while still functioning as an architectural element to define space, only structurally support themselves with inverted fluting though an intersection of the otherwise recognizably pure geometry. Designed and fabricated in collaboration with Prof. Trevor Watson for the 2018 GSAPP End of Year Show. Beginning as a Rhino modeled, 3d printed cast concrete object, we scaled and redesigned the object first to be laser cut and assembled by hand, to finally being CNC milled and assembled in the GSAPP Fab Lab.
