“Morphodynamical approaches for fabrication and interactive design”
Keywords: kinetic, Actuation systems, 3d printing, laser cutting, Grasshopper, optimization.
Workshop Proposal Brief
Computational tools have given architects high variety of possibilities in design, meanwhile material properties investigations have a lot of potential especially in transitions of scale, patterns, structure, curvature and porosity variations. It is been difficult to construct complex geometries from smaller towards bigger scales, particularly with the current digital fabrication machines, the new methods should be re-established.
The main goal of this workshop is to develop morphodynamic techniques for a skin that would engage the traditional framework of parametric design processes using simulation strategies for dynamic formations. Design interactivity and fabrication strategies will be embedded deeply in the formation of design, through a set of local interactions on complex geometry systems.
Besides of parametric and computational tools for finding typologies of joints and assemblages; material simulations will be applied for fabrication time and optimization, enhancing the production workflow according to design complexities.
