Ferda Kolatan talks about his collaboration with Erich Schoenenberger as part of their New York-based practice su11. The firm’s work specializes in computational technologies and techniques of fabrication. At the time of the lecture, Kolatan identified a growing synthesis between computational design and realization in the built environment. The author, lecturer and studio instructor presents a series of slides that explain the roots of his design methods and ideas, starting out with composite animals. Kolatan presents a collection of projects designed by his practice at different scales and utilizing varying materiality under different conditions but defined by a similar thread of computational techniques.
