Timber Twirl Haven
The Timber Twirl Haven project consists of a hands-on activity integrating fourth-year architecture students and Interior design majors. The design of the Haven was parametrically developed so that students were able to extract from a digital model the necessary data to measure, cut, and assemble 37 frames of varying shapes while comprising 211 slats and more than 600 screws of three different types. This design's core concept relies on exploring parametric design to inform the fabrication of complex shapes while facilitating collaborative workflows since the students were divided into groups responsible for fabricating different frames. They had to coordinate the assembly of each part of the Haven and depend on each other's work to accomplish the Haven's construction.
