During this studio, we designed and prototyped an innovative concrete formwork system for producing new types of hollow columns that use resource-efficient strategies to make new shapes of concrete elements possible. The work is based on rotoforming concrete in hyperplastic membranes made of latex and on the usage of different stretching technics and additive shapes inside the formwork.
