- ExLab: Digital Furniture Fabrication | Melbourne School of Design
The ExLab: Digital Furniture Fabrication showcases furniture pieces designed and made by MSD students. Each piece focuses on digital fabrication and computational design processes as a means to innovate making techniques and drive design processes. This methodology allows the processes of making to drive the design work-flow by constructing a feedback dialogue between physical prototypes and computational processes.

Unbelievable.... this could be used for SO MANY COOL APPLICATIONS. LOVE IT.
Fire!!!!!
I plan to do this
The next level..
Cool idea and think its worth pursuing. If concrete is uncomfortable as you stated in a comment than just form it wider/deeper, making allowance for fitted cushions...Would still keep its unusual free flowing shape.
Guys the pavers!
So artistic.... Pretty cool
Yeah, a great concept by Andrea
There is a tall strange building In Sakai Japan made from a technic where you spray concrete onto a structure.
Please help me out my thesis topic is same and i cant make it strong so it could bear more weight?
Great work! Could you explain a bit on the composition of material used to stiffen the fabric?
Sorry, as mentioned I am the producer of the film, this wasn't my project. Thanks
Did you use plaster of paris?
Great idea Andrea! I would call it Layman's Throne for Lameh;-) Loves from Perth
❤️❤️❤️
Love the idea, but a work & safety disaster - no gloves? no mask?
Was the chair itself very light weight? I'm interested in considering this technique for a large but light weight table.
Hey I had the same idea! It's only been a month, but did you pursue it? If so how did it turn out? I'm thinking it would be a cheap alternative to buying a patio table and once I move if I don't want to keep it I could make some money back.
Wearing all black to work with concrete mix - I know genius when I see it.
Hello
Have you tryed to do with lime ? would it be strong enough ?
Cause i love the idea, but im looking for something breathable : ) So if anybody tryed before me i'll take ! : )
Thanks for sharing !
Hey! This project wasnt done by me, I'm the one producing and filming :)
It was done 3 years ago as a student project, so I doubt he will re-do this :)
@@ShawnKoh Ok, thanks for your answer !
Very improbably this is structurally sound or you’d see it done all the time. Would definitely need glass fiber concrete, and would need proper thickness.
I’m curious I did not see anyone actually sitting in them. Are they actually strong enough to use? Or just an object?
erm...how about the cover photo of this video lol...
He's clearly sitting on it
Why is the concrete white
I suppose the soaked fabrics will act as an effective skeleton once it's set, but I still have to ask, is it strong enough to sit on?
🤔
Hey! I wasnt the one who built this but I did have a go at sitting on it, it is surprisingly stable and strong!
@@ShawnKoh Cool then, I'll try making some like this 👍😊
But can you sit on it? What’s the maximum weight it can support etc
Yes, the thumbnail shows a person sitting on it :)
who did this project?
What type of cement did you use???
Looks like white cement and they added oxide to help keep it as white as they could.
That must be some heavy to lift and form
So you used white cement but what was the bag of that other stuff
No idea...I'm just the video guy hahaha
Probably an acrylic polymer to retain moisture while the cement hydrates.
White oxide to keep it as white as possible.
Can you actually sit on it?
Hypertufa method?
i checked in to find out what kind of gloves u use 😂
Like I've said, I'm not the guy in the video, I am the videographer hahah so I don't know what gloves he used :)
But will it hold body weight ?
If you notice the thumbnail, there's a person sitting on it.
What's the mixture and its ratio. My prototype got cracks in a while.
Hi there, I do not know the details of this project. I was only there to film and document the process.
@@ShawnKoh do you know if it works? life if they can sit on it??
Yaser El-Samman yes, as you can see from the tumbnail/ cover image of this video, the creator of the chair is sitting on it
@@ShawnKoh without the poles right?
Yaser El-Samman yes purely cloth and concrete
it does not look like they used concrete but some kind of plaster. As it is white and not grey and he used his bare hands to mix it, it is unlikely cement, the binding agent of concrete. The lime in cement creates an acid than burns skin and even a crazy creative artist would have worn gloves. I like innovative creative functional art like this. Nice work...
Thats a good point, to be honest I was just filming him, I’m not exactly sure what was used but the final outcome was really strong and could support my weight of 86kgs :)
The bag literally says "white cement" @ 1:04
You clearly have zero experience with concrete or plaster.
no acid in cement its alkaline reaction plus you can shape it with your hands safely if you rinse your skin off
easy to build, nice to look at but zero practical use = (dust catching) art?
But still kinda like it.
where's your gloves???
Breaking hearts and bruising buttocks' since 2018.......😆
You could have wear a gloves
Noted
Do you have Instagram or mail ?
