MATERIALS & METHODS

Rolex Construct

Instructor : Louis Molina

Teammates : Jorge Cerdo, Cairo Reed, and Abraham Rivera.

When designing the many case studies we did for our interpretation of the Rolex learning center. My colleagues and I found out that we needed to create frames and structure to fill our shapes. We can capture moments that define the Rolex learning center by designing these rigs or frames that create geometry similar to the Rolex learning center. The intent was to recreate a portion of the Case study Rolex learning center in Lausanne, Switzerland. As for optimization we had a basic understanding of the Rolex learning center and made steps on creating frames and rigs that capture moments that are similar to the Rolex learning center. We made a comprise on using wood instead of metal. The wood acted as a frame in our case studies, it creates form with its structure and we were able to create many iterations of our perspective on the Rolex learning center. The design material behind this building is metal, wood, glass, and cement.
