Reveal texture

Original Inspiration 2-D representational drawings

Conceal texture

Objective: Explore light from a purely visual perspective, first through observation and then through communication and representation in both 2 and 3 dimensions.Exploration: Light can reveal or conceal the texture of a surface

+ The angle and intensity of light gives form to the edges of the texture, but the texture becomes concealed when light illuminates the surface uniformly+ Both light and shadow play an integral part in revealing or concealing the texture of a surface

Visual Effects of LightingCraig Bernecker, Glenn Shrum, Amer Maleh | Fall 2010

Fixture set-up

+ The angle of the fixture determines the degree at which the texture is revealed

Mission: To foster the understanding of the design intersections between nature and technology and to support a heightened sense of responsibility for increasing the sustainability of built environmentsObjective: Propose a design for a self-sustaining playground that can generate its own power through human interventionPrograms Used: Photoshop and Rhino

+ Grant proposal: Michael Kalil Endowment for Smart Design+ Inspiration from PLANYC 2030, “dozen of high quality fields are rendered all but unusable after the sun sets.”

Research on Renewable Energy

Floor panel generates energy

The act of compression produces energy which is stored in a battery.

Jumping on the outer perimeter circles generates enough energy during the day to power the electric lights in the center

Objective: design and built a model to better understand daylighting in an interior spaceClient: Spa treatment center

+ Used the heliodon to understand light distribution during different times of the year+ Experimented with various window types such as clerestory, light shelves, and sky lights + Tested two kinds of window treatments: diffused and clear + The diffused material obliterates the hot spot and discomfort seen in the image of the clear clerestory+ Experimented with daylighting during different times of day and orientation
