making of a smooth surface - detail
Posted by proxy.toru under architecture , fabrication - No Comments
A close up view of a portion of the panelization. If two planes are not in the same plane, they will have an intersection line. The intersection lines that create an internal boundary within that plane compose the panel.

making of a smooth surface
Posted by proxy.toru under architecture , computation , fabrication - No Comments
Now that modeling a smooth surface is becoming the norm, that is not enough for many of us. There are a few ways in making these surface. (1) 3dprinting (2) sectioning in one direction or in both directions to build a rib structure (3) Milling the surface and vacuum forming (4) the conversion of surface to polygon and the unfolding of the polygon, laser cutting and reassembling the unfolded pieces. The image above shows a surface panelized with all planar elements.
