Constructo developed a custom CNC programming technique to create unparallel textures for any given surface using Grasshopper. We learned to program and generate our own G-Codes that enable us to create beautifully carved surfaces. In this example. a prestigiuos law firm in Puerto Rico wanted to update their reception's main wall and commisioned us the designwork for a custom cladding using this technique. The result is a highly provocative yet elegant wall texture made of 18 custom mahogany hardwood tiles. Constructo 2013.
