sstudiomm’s negative precision project explores alternative brick laying patterns

sstudiomm’s ‘negative precision’ project explores different brick laying techniques for parametric walls. protruding textures and wave-like patterns present an alternative approach towards the typical manual construction technique. each individual part is placed at a particular angle which effects the overall appearance of the façade. the result is a DIY stencil kit for builders, architects, and creative individuals to use as they wish. you can find the whole process and diagram to follow here.
