Today I made this:

Laboratori de Fabricació

Laboratori de Fabricació is an ongoing exhibition hosted at Disseny Hub Barcelona, which started a month ago and will change its face many times till may of 2011.

Laboratori de Fabricació presents an analysis of the new 3D digital fabrication technologies that are leading to radical changes in design and production processes.

The expo is hosting an active digital fabrication laboratory, named DHUB FAB, which is a derivation of the original Fab Lab, and many other parallel activities.

The design process for the graphic suite of this exhibition started from a classical icon of the industrial design process: the production chain. This basic object assumes strange behaviors and evolves in the different applications on various graphic supports: it turns, it twists, it moves upside down, becoming a vague abstract representation of what it meant originally and reflecting the problems of industrial production in the era of digital fabrication.

In this post you can see how it all looked at the beginning

Here is what remains at the end of the whole design journey:

An eye on the suburbs

Here are some of the picture I am shooting here in Barcelona during my journeys in the suburbs. I am trying to focus on the effect of public space seen from outside of the buildings it typically refers to. Collective space seen from a distance.

Academic 5 – We have always lived in the castle

“We have always lived in the castle” is the project for a magazine which wants to be a source of inspiration for creative minds. The work was made together with Rita Lino

Here are few pictures

Academic 4 – Laboratori de Fabricació

These are few images from my final project for the Postgraduate in graphic design applied to communication I did from october 2009 to february 2010 in Barcelona. The project was selected to be realized and you can actually see the applications at Disseny Hub Barcelona. Another post will follow with the images of the printed works.

Academic 3 – My Facebook Galaxy

This is an attempt to describe through a diagram the universe of relationship that one keeps through his/her facebook profile. The project is a collaboration with Rita Lino and was made with the supervision of Bestiario

Academic 2 – /bɒmˈbæs.tɪk/

This is my work on a campaign for a virtual typography exhibition. The work tries to mix the quality of typography expressed by the richness of the unusual glyphs with the funny name assigned to the exhibition. Phots by Alberto Sinigaglia.

Academic 1 – We Make Future Cities

This is a little exercise on how to represent typographically the sentence “We Make Future Cities”. Please click on the images to take a look closer or either look for them in my flickr

Retrospective 5 – The Block

In summer 2009 I worked for the Collective City team, curating an exhibition in the International Architecture Biennale Rotterdam 2009. My illustrations and photographs on the themes “Collective City” and “Custom City” where exhibited in the Biennale (NAI Rotterdam) and published in Open City, Designing Coexhistence – SUN Publishers, and Volume magazine, issue #21.

Here are few photos:

Retrospective 4 – A look to Rotterdam

These are just some previews of the photos I did in one year in Rotterdam – you can find more of them on my flickr.

In these images, I tried to focus my visual research on the spaces of the suburbs and particularly in the voids left nearby huge housing operations.
