It was great to host @LaurenDreier from Princeton @UH_Engineering last weekend where we began experimenting with 3D weaving techniques. She gave a great seminar in the department, and gave us a tour of her art pieces at the APS's DFD Traveling Gallery of Fluid Motion @nl_longnecker.

Gearing up for our upcoming exhibition in the European Cultural Centre’s architecture biennale, Time Space Existence 2025! Kirigami d’Aria explores how structures based on kirigami (“cut paper”) can be used in architectural settings, adaptively tailoring airflow and shading in public spaces.
