Lightness

Cornell University | November 2015

ARCH 2101: Second Year Design Studio I

Professor: Leslie Lok

Lightness is a material study that inverts the roles of concrete and wood, testing the limits of their material capacities.

In any other scenario, concrete provides the heavyset structural basis for a light scaffolding system, but in this investigation, an impossibly thin concrete shell is held up by a lattice of thin wood sticks.
