A Change of StateGeorgia Institute of Technology/Nader Tehrani, 2006
This installation is the result of a one-year research
process conducted by Nader Tehrani with a core
team of students during his time as the Ventulett
Distinguished Chair in Architectural Design at
Georgia Tech. The task of the project was to analyze
and develop a three-dimensional installation whose
fabrication method was limited to a two-dimensional
material.
The underlying mission, therefore, was to
radicalize the potentials of sheet material by provoking
it to take on structural, spatial, programmatic, and
phenomenal dimensions while adopting techniques
that bring this variety of agendas into organic
alignment. From the perspective of technique, the
most important aspect of this project was the
awareness that two-dimensional surfaces gain
access to a third by way of the ruled surface.
The logic of the geometric unit, then, was based on the introduction and elimination of vertices—in combination with surface rotation—to create transformations in the structure.
