University of California, Berkeley celebrated the opening of the xučyun ruwway graduate student apartments in University Village on Wednesday with local Ohlone leaders. The name translates to "our homeland house" in the Chochenyo language, recognizing the land of the indigenous Ohlone people. This innovative student housing project maximizes sunlight and sustainability to create an inspiring home for graduate students. The building's four housing wings are angled for optimal solar orientation, with open stairways, balcony landings, and small study rooms offering spectacular views of the bay, bridges, and downtown skyline. Metal screens wrap open stairs and elevator lobbies becoming shade canopies, gates, and fencing while metal window surrounds on the south elevation provide shade throughout the day, reducing heat gain and creating visual interest. Partners for this American Campus Communities project included kevin daly Architects [kdA], CMG Landscape Architecture, PK Associates Structural Engineers, and BŌK MODERN.

The Houston Endowment project features louvers with a semicylindrical shape that bends at the edges to connect with the next panel, with the largest panel measuring 4.40m. These louvers also utilized an internal rib cage system to ensure structural stability for the large-scale panels. This rib cage design was not only crucial for maintaining rigidity but also played a key role in the installation process. A custom lifting mechanism was developed to attach directly to the ribs, enabling secure and efficient panel installation. 🖥️Tell us about your next project info@kineticagroup.com 📚 #architecture #kinetica #industrialdesign #engineering #digitalfabrication #custommade #complexgeometry #productioline #custommade #process #fabrication #instalation
