Green2 recently published an article on design research by Michal. The article starts with examples of design research seen as an activity of studying designers to learn what designing actually is. Donald Schon’s book “The Reflective Practitioner” is often one of the core references in such research. The article discusses Abel Maciel’s engineering doctorate at [...]

Michal Piasecki recently recently developed a generative process for Malgorzata Mozolewska‘s “Structural Ornament”, a project aiming at embedding algorithmic aesthetics into structural logic. The outcome turned out to be more of a material than an object. The project is Malgorzata’s master thesis at the Faculty of Design, Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. Below is [...]

Joris Laarman Studio commissioned Michal Piasecki to develop a generative process for their Starlings Table project. The 3d printed piece of furniture was on show at Friedman Benda gallery in New York between March 4 and April 10, 2010. The process consisted of a 3d flocking simulation based on the Reynold’s boids algorithm. User of [...]

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 [...]

Evolve rings where commissioned and are distributed by Fluid Forms. I have co-designed them together with Krystian Kwiecinski and they are available for purchase since today. They where designed with an aid of an artificial selection in genetic algorithm (GA). I have developed the phenotype together with Krystian and then wrote a purpose-built GA tool [...]
