Aim of the Project

The aim of this project is to explore material systems and material computation through an iterative design process alternating between analogue and digital modelling techniques. The idea is to engage spatial experimentation through a material process that encourages an understanding of form as a continuous process of formation.

Learnings from the Project

Various physical form-finding techniques to investigate and simulate the interrelationships of material, structure, and form. Introduction to 3D physics-based form-finding tools with which you are expected to explore how to abstract the principles learned in the physical form-finding models and apply them into digital models. Finally, developed a repertoire of digital models using these principles to explore further their design logic and explore the potential of their initial physical experiments.
