design access

We believe in using our skills to create opportunities. We regularly devote some of our time and resources on quota-basis to pro bono or non-profit projects, based on our evaluation of the social and/or design value of a project.

We welcome you to approach us regarding this if you believe your project is socially-relevant and impactful to communities.

WORKSHOP

Terraced in Tehran // Becoming architecture: Generative AI diffusion models make it possible to communicate architectural ideas before static outcomes, as an evolving conceptual thought process. Terraced in Tehran // Becoming architecture: Generative AI diffusion models make it possible to communicate architectural ideas before static outcomes, as an evolving conceptual thought process. Fractals 35.0: The Digital Vernacular 5.0 at @council_of_architecture_india Teachers Training Program #LetsFLOCKtogether Learning from master craftspersons // Artisans have perfected traditional techniques in natural material passed down from master to apprentice over generations. Learning these age-old crafts directly from the experts, as well as an understanding of materiality, supply chains and material lifecycles, informs our approach to design exploration in research, pedagogy and fabrication. Working under bamboo fabricators in Vellore, students of vsparcmakes designed and built a series of pavilions during the @fractalsworkshop 15.0: ProtoFolly in 2017. The 10-day workshop resulted in 8 parametric bamboo pavilions placed in the Woodstock forest at @vellore_vit. Happy World Bamboo Day!

STUDIO

DesignAware had the opportunity to present our work and ideas, as well as the model of WeaveX 4.0: HyPArray to Municipal Commissioner Abhishek Augustya, IAS of the Khammam Municipal Corporation, alongside Asst Engr Shaik Yakub Vali. WeaveX 4.0: HyPArray // Summers in #Telangana are harsh: hot and dry with intense heat waves (only redeemed by unexpected occasional showers and the world’s best mangoes!) These bus shelters have been designed as a respite from the scorching sun while people go about their day and wait for public transport or rest. The Digital Vernacular is back with WeaveX 4.0: HyPArray! Coming soon to a town near you, #Telangana! White ribbons of folded steel over the origami-inspired façade and wrap around the side of the house, casting fractured shadows and letting in strips of light that snake over the walls and floor, shifting with the seasons and time of day.
