Michal will give a talk entitled “Digital Craft” at the Faculty of Design, Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. It will be a discussion of computer aided manufacturing and design as tools enabling the creation of complex forms, often inspired by nature and contributing to developement of new business models based on the idea of […]


Green2 published Michal’s new text about an algorithmic analysis of cities. The text features the research of Space Syntax (University College London) as well as the one of prof. Waldemar Marzecki, dr. Klara Czynska and Pawel Rubinowicz (Szczecin School of Architecture). The first group uses sight analysis to simulate movement of actors such as pederstrians […]


Experimental Architecture is an exhibition composed of two parts: Computational Forms and De-Coding complexity. It’s opening this Thursday, November 25th, 5 pm at the Forma gallery in Szczecin as part of city’s festival of architecture. Exhibition website is available here (in Polish only). Computational Forms features the work of Przemek Jaworski and Michal Piasecki. Przemek […]


Fabricate is an international conference on design and making about to take place in London in April 2011. UPDATE: call for work is extended to 20th of September. Below is an excerpt from the press release: FABRICATE is an international peer reviewed conference with supporting publication and exhibition to be held at The Building Centre […]


Green2, a polish design magazine with a focus on sustainability, published Michal’s article on SmartGeometry 2010. This year’s SmartGeometry workshops took place at Iaac in Barcelona – a post-industrial setting likely to influence the title of the event. It was called “Working Prototypes”. Over four days more than a hundred participants worked in ten distinctive […]


Michal Piasecki recently took part in a symposium of PhD students researching computational design. Hosted by Centre for Information Technology and Architecture (CITA) in Copenhagen, the event drew together PhD students and tutors from The Bartlett, UCL, Spatial Information Architecture (SIAL) at RMIT and CITA. The event was structured into 4 panels and presentations of […]


Open Generative Design is an initiative started by dr. Sivam Krish. The aim is to develop platform independent algorithms which can be used to browse through solution spaces of various parametric definitions. The algorithms will be written in Excel and special add-on will be developed for each parametric modeling package. The ones for Solidworks and […]


Above are a couple of pictures showing manufacturing process of Evolve Ring Silver, commissioned and distributed by Fluid Forms and co-designed with Krystian Kwiecinski. The manufacturing process begins with a wax 3d print of a positive form. Then a rubber mold is created with the use of the print and once it is ready the […]


Przemek Jaworski (who runs the projektowanie parametryczne.pl blog) and I where invited to speak about computational design at the “Westival” – architectural festival in Szczecin. Our talk will take place on 17:00, 23rd of Nov in “Willa Lentza”, al. Wojska Polskiego 84. Program of the event is available here (polish). Please join us if you […]


Major media increasingly notice the possible change, which 3d printing might bring when it will be developed into an affordable technology capable of working with multiple materials. “A factory on your desk” is an article on Economist.com, which not only introduces the major players in the game, such as Z-Corp, but also gives a hint […]
