FABRICATION LABORATORY – a show in Barcelona
A show in barcelona opening 15.06.2010 – 29.05.2011
we will be showing some of the older projects and some of the new UCODO products.
New scenarios in 3D design and production
The upcoming event being organised by the DHUB consists of not one but a
series of activities (exhibitions, real-time fabrication laboratories,
workshops, lectures, etc.) that offer a comprehensive overview of 3D
digital manufacturing technologies, a new reality in constant
evolution that is producing a fundamental transformation of design and
production processes.

Assa at GIL show and conference
This show was organised by the Emily Campbell of the British Council and Chinese curator Ou Ning. it was a traveling show running through the Chinese cities Shenzhen, Shanghai and Beijing
Great party out in Shanghai…

you are co designing with me!!
my lemon squeezer… see this animation of the shape ganging
geometry. using our Digital forming software we can offer ‘software products’
for the first time! this is a virtual product that comes with all of its necessary
tools and modifiers, giving you the way to open and shape castomise it, you are
co designing with me!!
My Pens are ‘open’ for you to shape change…
Assa Ashuach new shape changing life objects collection for UCODO.com this revolutionary concept of ‘software products’ and ‘CO Design’ using the Digital forming 3D interactive technology was first presented to the public at London Science Museum in summer 2009 visit www.UCODO.com for more interactive products that are ‘OPEN for you to online customise, shape change and localy produce
Ai stool at Moss gallery Design Miami 09
The AI Stool.mgx for materialise mgx, designed to carry a load of 120kg on a sitting surface at a height of 40cm. The challenge was to design a form with the minimum volume required for a seat and then instruct the AI software to calculate the required support.
The AI stool top layer designed to be soft and cushiony. How can softness be simulated in the virtual environment? One of the great successes of this project was to generate and analyse virtual softness.
Reduce carbon footprint,
The AI software used in this collaboration works rather like finite element analysis [FEA] in reverse. An ideal set of end results were formulated as the starting point and the optimal structure was created by working backwards to achieve that goal. The final outcome met all of the mechanical requirements while only using 1/3 of the anticipated material!
We are now in a process of finalising DIGITAL FORMING® a revolutionary new digital production network that rather than sending a box will send a digital file over the web to the consumer close production facilities. It is the notion of postcode manufacturing that will change products carbon footprint dramatically.
A veggie material is already in development and hopefully will be introduced by EOS the German laser sintering manufacturer in the near future. With this new veggie polymer and DIGITAL FORMING® the postcode manufacturing network consumers could get their products produced locally made bespoke from recyclable biodegradable materials.

Assa Loop light for UCODO.com
The Loop light was firstly shown at London’s Science
Museum as part of the first shape changing – CO Designed collection for
UCODO.com using the digital forming technology.
Co Design proposing that the designer design
objects that are open for the user – co designer to change, manipulate and personalise
within the designer pre defined set of boundaries.
Democratisation of Personal Objects
Digital Forming ltd set up in November 2008 by four partners from the science,
creative and business sectors-
was awarded government funding in May 2009 to develop the vision of an online
platform for the Mass Customisation and Co Creation of personal designed
objects.
Assa Co-founded Digital Forming® and UCODO™. The two London based companies are
set to democratise the personalisation of everyday products; introducing the
notion of ODO – Original Designed Object and CODO – Co Designed Object, using a
set of innovative 3D software solutions for online customisation and shape
modification of designed objects. Digital forming was awarded government
funding and was invited to show at London’s Science Museum’s 100 years
anniversary featuring ‘the future of manufacturing’ showing for the first time
shape changing 3d modifiable products designed by Assa for UCODO.com
