Robinson Fredenthal was an Architect, interested in the study of geometry, and although he used materials like cardboard, steel, and plywood, his true medium was immaterial. His work was governed by stable tetrahedrons and octahedrons in combination as a space-filling triangulated network.

The shapes are stable as a geometry, all sides are given 60 degree angles with the weight in equal proportions. With the use of ABB IRB4600-60 robots with clay end effectors to produce clay bricks, we were able to test, create, and recreate multiple directions for the project. 

Our project uses a convolutional neural network to create a microrelief that defamiliarizes the piece into a non-clay element. The idea was to accentuate the spirals of our design by forming a gradient and contrast traditional forms of clay.
