ARCO MADRID: PAPER CHANDELIERS
ARCHITECT: Cristina Parreno
DETAILING and MACHINE DESIGN: James Coleman
Madrid, Spain
A parametric workflow and a custom CNC machine for measuring and organizing 5,000 unique suspension cables. Rendering a complex surface with simple parts, cardboard tubes and string. The machine was slower than measuring by hand, so it was brute forced but a first attempt at project specific automation.
