Denegri Bessai Studio

Denegri Bessai Studio Denegri Bessai Studio is based in Toronto, Canada. www.denegribessaistudio.com Established in 2007 by partners Tom Bessai and Maria Denegri.

Work from the studio has won numerous design awards, and has appeared in a range of local and international publications including Toronto Life, the Globe and Mail, Canadian Architect, Azure and Plan Magazine. Projects in the studio are carefully developed through an iterative design process that combines experimental research with engaged client consultation. Extensive material testing and protot

yping is a constant factor in the design work of the studio and is accomplished through the use of state-of-the art computation and fabrication techniques. This experimental practice model is supported and enhanced through teaching and research at the Daniels Faculty of Architecture at the University of Toronto alongside allied partners in academia and industry.

Lost and Found Cubbies at the Huron Street Public School - Another gem from the digital fabrication archives.

A simple and playful furniture piece that engages the energetic flux of kids, teachers and parents that emerged after a period of testing and prototyping. The order of cubbies is softened, stretched and deformed to create a sense of movement without compromising function.

Thanks to Jonathan at we've been searching through the archives...

The 3DXL Exhibit at the Design Exchange featured one of our first Mangrove Structures. Developed over years of research, teaching, and experimentation this collection of projects explore new technologies and techniques in digital fabrication.

The Mangrove is a ultra-lightweight structures made of two complimentary material systems. The first is a networked system of bending-active elements that spring into a network of structural shapes through the second system, a set of digitally designed node clusters. Through the multiple connection points, each element of the structure helps to support the rest.

The organic form of these structures seek to create space through a minimal envelope, representing a skeletal infrastructure that has the potential to host a variety of elements, spaces, and habitats.
