Open Platform Workshop: Day 1
The Open Platform workshop had a fantastic first day. All the workshops were full and participants were eagerly working away. Interesting explorations are underway across the trainings and workshops, with participants exploring constraint-generated models (responding to environmental, structural and fabrication concerns), mathematical surfaces and constructions, and creating interfaces for collaboration between design disciplines.
The evening presentations in the grand Oosterre room featured presenters from TU Delft, Buro Happold, and Form Foundation.
