/in , , , , /by

Our project has been shortlisted to for a 2018 Crystal Cabin Award! Students led by Ming Tang at the University of Cincinnati and the Live Well Collaborative developed the Virtual Assistant, Boeing Onboard, in the Spring of 2017. Boeing Onboard is a virtual assistant combined with a holographic interface which all passengers have access to onboard planes. Through augmented reality and wearable glasses, Boeing Onboard has the ability to provide passengers with valuable information, such as safety demonstrations, in-flight entertainment, and web browsing. Boeing Onboard is an in-flight concierge service connecting the passenger to all the resources and information the passenger needs for the ultimate travel experience.

Bamboo house construction

construção em bambu! America estrada do sol

It has been a few years since my folded bamboo concept was proposed in 2009. I am always questioning how an architectural concept can adapt to the local techniques via the refined, sometimes reinvented process based the unique context. I am so thrilled to see the bamboo structure been constructed by a team of talent people in Brazil! Congratulations to Daniel, Engels and Javier, Natalia. The 7 meters high structure was mounted on the floor, and posed in a way to represent the flower blooming. The structure consisted of 7 modules. Each module consists of 3 triangles, representing a petal of the flower. Thanks Luke Henry for providing all the materials!
