Hexagon is a project developed in IaaC under our Digital Fabrication course.
We developed a system based on component proliferation using laser cutting. The requierement was to reach one of the two focal points of two windows in a room, creating a virtual ceiling to generate a continuos surface in the space.
The task was to fill a hexagon with a 60 cm edge with a minimum of 15 components. The method of joining the components among themselves and with the hexagon had to be done only with the material itself without the use of tape, nails or glue.
We assembled all the cut components and installed them in the hexagons given as a work area. 25 groups developed different proposals using polypropylene as a base material, with the plywood structure of the hexagon.
