Interview with George Šmejkal

I like to achieve new goals. I love use of modern technology a new possibilities.

It is absolutely natural process.

furniture design and architecture

Think about concept. Don´t be scared.

Great has a bulletproof concept.

If it has a great idea behind the project.

Because of the time of team of people which is comprised in the final product.

footbridges for cities

a parametric building

You need to know what you want to achieve.

Philippe Starck, Zaha Hadid architects, Greg Lynn

Funiture of Zaha Hadid architects. Same complexity as in urban studies is dedicated to furniture.

It is Amheba bookcase. Amheba could change its shape in the course of the designing process, thanks to defining parameters. Concept of Topological optimization is used for lightening the structure. This organic shape is driven by algorithm, which contains parameters and set of rules. Lighweight structure is easily transferable.

Always search for new and fresh information.

an architect

process between art and technical knowledge

my parents, always

Lot of workshops and my girlfriend.

very hard school for bachelor degree, bad people.

it will be new chair with primary aspect of low price

Make own studio a work on interesting parametric projects.

really hard work on the design

It improves the whole environment. Also, the behaviour and relations between people.

combination of wood and 3d print

The Amheba bookcase. It works great.

Use of new materials and fabrication method. Make 3d print mass broaden out.

It will be using new materials and technology.

It´s about 4-5 months.

It starts with an idea. Pure and strong.

My passion is to find another paths than is regular.

vice versa

fundamental

Rhinoceros+Vray+Grasshopper(+addons)

Crucial. These are the aspects which make great design.

What is the benefit of it.

I want to see it physicaly.

Yes, it is possible. Co-design is absolutely great with people from different sector.

Tutors of workshops.

Buckminster Fuller

Trying to much things as possible

Greg Lynn

I not feel famous.

I like any great colors, but pink and black are great. Winter time with fresh air is good. Good clothes are essential (Nike, NewEra).

At my work, funny things doesn´t happens:)

Clean and friendly environment is a key to fell and work better.

Not at all. But I want to be an inventor.

Vehicles like cars will be flying. Cancer could be healed. People will live longer, but in cause of huge amount of them, it will be lack of energy and water.

#parametrstudio

Parametr Studio is fresh startup project which designs Smart wooden furniture. Each project has an encrypted special ability obtained by using digital design techniques, enhancing product capabilities. Studio was established in 2016 and it has 2 members. This young team is cooperation of designer and project manager. Studio is based in Prague, where the inventions come into existence. Main goal is to produce wood artefacts with better properties than is standard. Combination of generative tools and digital fabrication are characteristic feature of the studio.

My passion is to find another paths than is regular.

The scale doesn´t matter. From architecture to design.

It is Amheba bookcase. Organic bookcase called Amheba could change its shape during the designing process, thanks to defining parameters. Concept of Topological optimization is used for lightening the structure.

The Chair Fupa (fully parametric), It changes the shape based on the client input information.

I am trying to find new solution of designing and fabrication especially with wood materials. I am working with CNC machines.

When I absolutely know what I want to achieve.

It is economy of whole project.

excitement, adrenaline

satisfaction and calm

It is Great idea behind the projects.

what is the concept

Nowadays, It is very important to take care about recycling and use of materials which designers are using.

More use of technology in designing and fabrication.

My Fupa Chair was exhibited in February 2017 on Ecological housing fair in Prague.

Facebook and fast social media are great for inspiration. Also, Instagram and Youtube.

It is characteristic to use the computer and visual algorithmic programming, for me. My style is parametric designing.

I am from Hradec Králové a town in Czech Republic. There was lot of very famous great architecture made between the First and the Second world war. There is lot of innovations in these buildings. That thing has very positive impact on me.

No so often. Only for fabrication, but I like it and it works fine.

In general, primary important is, if the design has an idea behind itself.

At first, I need to have a goal which I need to achieve. Then, I make first sketches for formulate the idea. And after that, It is only long long time of scripting.

It is my bookcase Amheba. Than a lamp, a chair, and a table.

Somedays I am going to school for my master study in architecture. Other days I am working on visualizations or designing for Archonaut architecture studio. In the rest, I am thinking about new ideas for Parametr Studio.

Don´t be scared, be aware of stupid people.

Negative aspect is that everyone is designer. There is very big competition. On the other hand, It is really satisfying profession.

Think about the concept.

3d modelling

Rhinoceros + Grasshopper (+addons)

I have a paper notebook.

It depends, but about 4-5 months for me.

What I am using for my creativity.

Realization of Rock Café interior restoration in the center of the Prague.

My friends. And their friends.

I love parametric designing. I love the logic behind whole process.

I want to make new cheap furniture. Than some bigger pavilion from wood and finally a building. All with rules based on the parametric design.

I am developing my design myself.

Now I am finishing interesting school project which is generated by sound pollution from roads.
