NOMADIC:PNEUMATIC

RESEARCH PORTFOLIO

The research investigates deployable structures by studying nomadic knowledge, combined with unconventional and experimental techniques from pneumatic, mobile, and tensile structural innovation.
Informed by local vernacular techniques, structural and environmental, secrets were revealed and translated into new flexible components and cultural and educational programs, while pointing at the importance of local craftmanship and material choices.​​​​​

The research is made within the framework of Studio 12 by Alejandro Haiek, Umeå School of Architecture.
2019 Workshop with Rocio Pina. 
Speculating about deployable systems and performative ability, the scales are informed by the industry, the human power, the machine, and the maneuvers.The scale of components demands different performances of choreographies and labour.
