This workshop will produce cast concrete from foam formwork. The output is what we are calling 'foundations' which means they will support the seating and provide fixing points for the cantilever. The actual shape is not yet determined - that is your job! The shape will have to be determined by the parameters of the manufacturing processes, such as machining time, material size, removal of the mould - which means a really exciting design process will appear in the software to parametrize all of this.
