Kokkugia / Roland SNOOKS: The Composite Swarm installation is an architectural prototype exploring the relationship of robotic fabrication, composite materials, and algorithmic design. The complexity of the form and the excess of ornament make the prototype structurally efficient and minimize the amount of material used. . . .

La Cage aux Folles is an interactive installation, built within the courtyard of Materials & Applications in Los Angeles. The structure consists of 346 individual pipe pieces and 6,357 total feet of structure. Embracing both the “cage” and the “folly,” La Cage aux Folles joins form, computational procedures, and fabrication processes to create a dynamic, climbable structure.
