Finishing Touches on Photokeratitis

Here are a few images taken at the end of the Photokerititis installation at Cornerstone for TODO 2015.

Photokeratitis Install Continues into the Evening

Assembling a project at the scale of Photokerititis is something that requires more than just a good idea and a couple of people. Here we see the team putting the pieces together in the early evening at Cornerstone in preparation for the opening of the Toronto Design Offsite 2015 event.

Photokeratitis: The Assembly Continues

Once the main framework of CNC'ed contoured "ribs" were set in place, the [R]ed[U]x Lab team proceeded to add the laser cut elements that blurred the edges. The idea behind the laser cut elements was to find a way to generate a surface that both took on shadows but cast them as well as diffused the edges of the contoured pieces. As the design developed the laser cut elements were cut using light paper so that as air moved across the display, the shadows created by the ribs as well as the shadows produced by the installation would have another layer of movement.

Night Market 2014 Cart Process Imagery Part 1

Thanks to Remi once again for the outstanding documentation of the 2014 Night Market Cart - he even managed to make the developmental stages of the project look great. In addition to the documentation of the cart assembly, this series also showcases the greatest strength that Ryerson University's Department of Architectural Science has - its students' ability to get projects done. Given that the project came together in less than 10 hours (at no fault of the team), this year's cart team represents the best of the department. Students from first and second year really were instrumental in ensuring that the cart could actually get produced and for that they deserve special recognition.
