Parametric Bookshelves are a new piece in the Parametric Furniture line. The collaboration between the Research Lab NSU, at the Graduate School of Architecture of Columbia University and Italian architectural firm Tiazzoldi offers customers a unique configuration when the specify their desired dimensions and color.

From the Press Release:

Parametric Bookshelves Designed by Caterina Tiazzoldi, it uses advanced digital tools in formal exploration of new configurations of the same bookshelf. Each customer introduces data (length, height, preferred colours) and the parametric system responds by automatically changing some of the attributes (depth, thickness, colour saturation). In this way each customer is assured of a unique configuration. Parametric Furniture, particularly Parametric Bookshelves, helps develop and produce an infinite number of unique pieces, tailored to the customer's requirements, using a single model.

Parametri Stalactite Parametric Stalactites is the new design proposal by Tiazzoldi.org for a luxury Italian shoe brand. It has been conceived as an adaptable layout for a shoe store.

The Parametric Stalactites design derives from a unique parametric digital model that can achieve different configurations. All the surfaces are conceived as an assembly of 45x45 cm 'smart parametric tiles' responding to the different spatial requirements of the various store locations. Each tile can be more or less extruded according to the size of the store and the quantity of shoes on display.

The level of extrusion also defines the level of intensity of the space, and the entire surface is realised in a reflective resin, increasing the labyrinth effect of the space.
