Mike Chatziapostolou

In 2008 after graduating from Loughborough University with a Masters degree in Systems Engineering I began graduate employment at Airbus as a wing structures designer. I developed skil ls in aeronautical engineering, structural design, CAD, materials science and manufacturing processes. In 2011 I star ted Dance-Off Productions, an events company that creates interactive indoor and outdoor spaces for mass-audience par ticipation, music, dance and theatrical per formances. With my team, I have engineered, designed, fabricated, buil t and decorated projects for a range of clients across the UK. In 2013 I formed MEC Mechanical Engineering and began providing freelance CAD design services to Airbus under contract with a specialism in structural wing repairs and carbon-composite structures design. In 2014 I became a Char tered Engineer, accredited by the UK Engineering Council and the Insti tute of Engineering and Technology. In 2015 I joined Architek Design as lead design engineer. In this role I am responsible for producing design drawings and models for structures and products ranging from furniture to architectural and ar tist ic instal lations.

Project Examples

With my colleagues at Architek Design Ltd. – a new design and fabrication enti ty based in Bristol – I designed and fabricated fi t ted and freestanding furniture under commission for a new social space buil t for the University of Bristol. My main contributions to this project were the production of CAD models and drawings of the elements being manufactured, and fabricating a series of booth seats on site. The design of the booth seats uti l ised CNC mil l ing services provided by local supplier. I was also responsible for the health and safety aspects, budget control, contract negotiation and overall project management on this task.

The feature table formed a central focus for the room and was designed to be an attractive social space for gathering, working and eating together. The timber elements were designed in CAD and crafted by hand using 1:1 scale drawings. The pillars were accurately positioned and anchored to the ground using templates produced from the CAD models for a flawless install.

The booth seating design task presented a challenging opportunity to utilise the speed and accuracy of CNC milling technology to quickly produce large and comfortable seating areas.

CAFE | BAR PLAN A01

I completed and drew up an accurate building survey in AutoCAD. Using this I designed the venue layout to help visualise the project definition and aid communication with the client and key stakeholders.

Project Examples

Working with a team of alpine event specialists, I was tasked with producing an accurate 3D model of the 'Tignespace' event space from architectural drawings and photographs. Once the building shell had been created, I populated the empty space with technical production, decor, traf fic management and point-of-sale elements. Working in the 3D digital realm, i t was quick and easy to model a range of layouts for comparison and down-selection by Okoru. Once a final design had been approved, I used the 3D model to create attractive 2D renders for use in Okoru's event management planning and printing in the event programme material.

For this project, I was commissioned to produce li fe- l ike renders of a conceptual shared workspace.

The task was driven by very tight t ime constraints, with close collaboration with the client throughout. My designs were used to successful ly secure the funding necessary to realise these spaces in 2016.

This house plan was drawn for a client to be used in a planning permission application and is a good example of the type of si te and architectural scale drawings I am able produced quickly and accurately in AutoCAD.

Project Examples

One of my regular clients wanted to update their health and safety documentation with accurate scale drawings of their stage structures and also wanted some basic renders produced for their website and sales publications. I modelled the stages in 3D using Solidworks and produced 2D technical drawings to suppor t their HSE compliance drive.

An outdoor stage design and build for a first- t ime client at a Central London location. Inspired by a giant children’s toy theme, I designed Robodude 9000 – a f lat-pack and reusable per formance space constructed using timber, aluminium tube and Kee Klamp® fit t ings. The design was completely specified in a digital 3D environment before being transferred to 2D drawings for fabrication.

A fully dimensioned 2D bench drawing set produced directly from the CAD model al lowed for mil l imetre accurate working during the fabrication phase.

Detailed assembly drawings and equipment l ists ensured that the temporary structure was delivered as a complete kit, and assembled easily on-site ready for health and safety review and sign-of f against the design data and method statement.

An outdoor stage build for a medium-sized festival in Cambridgeshire. The theme for 2013 was centred on secret societies, sacred geometry and spiri tual temples. The centrepiece of the build was a 20ft pyramid, designed in-house and fabricated on-site.

Project Examples

Working as a freelance design engineer for Ten Fold Engineering in Bath I was tasked with developing a concept for an unfolding solar array using their proprietary lever l inkage. This challenging 2-week project resulted in a functioning baseline assembly modell ing in Solidworks. The project is now in review await the client feedback and fur ther development.

An Airbus A380 suf fered an uncontained engine failure shor t ly after take-of f which caused extensive damage to the left hand wing. The aircraft landed safely, but the repair would take 18 months to define, manufacture and embody. I was responsible for developing the bottom skin and fixed leading edge repairs from concept through to manufacture and instal lation on the aircraft.

I wanted to create a strong, functional and authentic boxing ring using standard steel deck for use at Dance-Off per formances where the structure would be used to facil i tate dance batt les. The ring needed to be incredibly robust, easy to build and safe. After extensive research I could not find anything of f the shelf that met these requirements so decided to design this f lexible bracket and post system myself. The system fi ts al l common types of steel deck and can handle a platform of any size both indoors and outdoors.
