This exhibition chronicles new approaches of design research that directly engage the manufacturers’ building products to pursue new strategies of design, sustainability, and its relationship to contemporary manufacturing methodologies. The studios develop new applications for building products through full scale prototypes, material demonstrations, and project proposals. Designtex: students develop full-scale prototypes by using strategies of no-waste manufacturing and recycling for the manufacturer of architectural wall coverings designtex. Hunter Douglas: based on Hunter Douglas window covering products, a collaborative studio enviroment of material research explores new applications of architectural space, the fundamental phenomena of the material and its reaction within the enviroment.
