- p_008 panelization studiesFor architects, surface panelization techniques have long provided compelling aspects within the paradigm of form-to-factory manufacturing. The ‘panelization studies’ project builds upon components of an earlier competition, utilizing the complex hull shape of the design as an initially arbitrary foundation for further research on methods of free-form panelization. While always evaluating the spatial qualities of each approach, the process is largely biased towards optimal production characteristics.
The studies encompass various computational methods of a) planar surface decomposition, b) subdivision into ruled surfaces and c) strategies exceeding a purely ‘fragmentational’ approach, immediately incorporating specific material properties into the process (e.g. deformation capacities etc.). Each approach is meticulously evaluated, tracking the maximal surface deviation, formal qualities, part count, part sizes etc.
