title Sewing Pneumatic Textures - three-dimensional digital design based on the craft of dressmaking
source D. Holzer, W. Nakapan, A. Globa, I. Koh (eds.), RE: Anthropocene, Design in the Age of Humans - Proceedings of the 25th CAADRIA Conference - Volume 1, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand, 5-6 August 2020, pp. 115-124

summary This project explores a novel approach to digitally designing pneumatic membrane structures, utilizing traditional sewing methods from dressmaking. These sewn fabric manipulation techniques are commonly used to fit flat non-stretchy fabrics around the curvature of the body. The goal is to adapt these methods to create, shape, texture, and articulation on the pneumatic surfaces. This is in contrast with other research that is interested in creating smooth minimal surfaces with complex paneling patterns. The expression of textures explore engagement with tactility, addressing desires of playful touch and comfort within the built environment. Computer software for the fashion industry is used in the design process. The software has built in simulations and works with CAD-CAM software to produce patterns, which streamlines production and fabrication. The prototypes produced test the possibilities of these methods of sewing and the physical outputs for shape, tactility, and aesthetics.

title Automating the Adaptive Reuse of Cultural Heritage: A computational framework for reconfiguring historic masonry buildings
source Dokonal, W, Hirschberg, U and Wurzer, G (eds.), Digital Design Reconsidered - Proceedings of the 41st Conference on Education and Research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe (eCAADe 2023) - Volume 2, Graz, 20-22 September 2023, pp. 691–700

summary Adaptive reuse is a challenging problem that combines spatial, structural, and architectural requirements, along with current restrictions in design, enhanced in buildings with heritage value. In this scenario, generative design techniques allow for exploring different arrangements for a pre-defined problem, assisting professionals during complex design tasks. Therefore, this work explores the potential of Shape Grammars in generating solutions for the adaptive reuse of Sobrado buildings, the prevalent typology in the historic center of Sao Luís. This paper focuses on the computational implementation of the transformation rules using rhino script syntax and python. The methodology proposes a framework for adapting buildings into multi-family apartments, considering existing spatial and structural requirements. It investigates the allocation of three apartment types in the floor plan: studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments. The adopted strategy for the distribution of internal spaces considers existing elements, such as windows and balconies, allowing to benefit from the natural daylighting characteristics of the buildings, following the original projects during the XVIII and XIX centuries. An interactive approach is implemented to explore the potential of generating diverse spatial arrangements during the adaptive reuse process.

title The Reviver Grammar: transforming the historic center of Sao Luís through social housing
source Herrera, PC, Dreifuss-Serrano, C, Gómez, P, Arris-Calderon, LF, Critical Appropriations - Proceedings of the XXVI Conference of the Iberoamerican Society of Digital Graphics (SIGraDi 2022), Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas, Lima, 7-11 November 2022 , pp. 347–358
summary This work explores the potential of Shape Grammars in generating solutions for the adaptive reuse of historic buildings. It proposes a transformation grammar for the Sobrado building, a typology present in the historic center of Sao Luís. The methodology proposes a framework for adapting buildings into multi-family apartments, considering spatial and structural requirements. The grammar aims to develop a formalism for repurposing historic buildings into social housing and considers the allocation of three types of apartments in the floor plan: studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments. The adopted strategy for the distribution of internal spaces considers opening elements, such as windows and balconies, allowing to benefit from the natural daylighting characteristics of the buildings. This paper describes the grammar rules and its application to a case study building, aiming to demonstrate how the grammar supports different layout solutions for the same design space.

title The Slow Rise of 3D on the Web
source Computer Graphics Worlds - July 2001, p. 22
summary Consumer, commercial, and educational applications on the Web have been slow to take advantage of 3D, although for years it has been viewed as a boon for the graphics industry. Over the last 18 months, the situation has begun to look more favorable for the graphics industry, reports M2 Research's Wanda Meloni. Meloni says changes in the market and in technology have fueled the rise of 3D on the Web. The increase in broadband connections from 2.7 million users in 1999 to 8 million users in 2000 means that the market of consumers who have Internet connections fast enough to view and interact with 3D content has grown considerably. Also, 3D players are no longer limited to a proprietary format now that new game consoles from Nintendo and Microsoft will offer Web-based real-time 3D multiplayer gaming; in addition, 3D graphics technology will now be embedded into applications for Internet appliances and handheld devices. M2 Research estimates that the number of Web media players that are 3D-enabled will rise from 17 percent currently to 32 percent by the end of the year, as 3D player vendors offer more direct support to 2D players such as RealPlayer and Shockwave. Still, content production will remain a major hurdle because millions of Web authors are not using 3D. Meloni says creative professionals and digital designers will need a new set of 3D tools that will work seamlessly with current Web content in video, 2D graphics, and audio.

title Synchronous Horizons: Redefining Spatial Design in Landscape Architecture Through Ambient Data Collection and Volumetric Manipulation
source ACADIA 12: Synthetic Digital Ecologies [Proceedings of the 32nd Annual Conference of the Association for Computer Aided Design in Architecture (ACADIA) ISBN 978-1-62407-267-3] San Francisco 18-21 October, 2012), pp. 355-361

summary The premise of this paper addresses the limited shared vocabulary of landscape architecture and architectural design - evident in the application of terms such as ‘spatial design’ and ‘spatial planning’. In their current usage, such terms emphasize the visible, terrestrial, pedestrian perspective level, often to the absolute exclusion of a spatial, ie. volumetric, comprehension of the environment. This deficit is acutely evident in the education of Landscape Architecture and Architecture, and discussion of their shared ground. The dominant document to map such analysis and design is the plan, or 3d-dimensional representations of the same, restricted to an extrusion or height map. GIS techniques in spatial design tend to be weighted towards visual, surface based data (slope analysis, exposure, viewshed etc.). Our goal within this domain lies in transforming aspects of the intangible - the characteristics of open space itself - into a form that is legible, quantifiable, and malleable.

summary Working with and against environmental processes, such as the movement of water, earth, and rock, and terrain, has been a perpetual challenge since the dawn of civilisation. While it has been possible to gradually tame many landscapes to perform in a predictable manner, there are many circumstances where we are forced to live with and around such processes in everyday life. This research is primarily interested in the potential of design to interact with such processes. Specifically, we are interested in the designed redirection of erosion and landslide processes already observable in nature, taking the urbanised hillsides of the Alps as test case scenario. The research specialisation continues a research and design focus specialised on processes material deposition of river and flood systems, further down the water catchment chain (REF: ANON 2012). This specific alpine research is compelling in the context of Anthropocene processes, we are specifically focussed in the appraisal, harnessing and redirection of existing environmental phenomena, given what can be understood as our inevitable interaction with these processes (Sijmons 2015). Within this broader research, which has ecological, cultural, and formal potential, this paper shall explore the practical aspects of connecting design, and the designer, with the potential for understanding and designing these evolving mountain landscapes. There is a long history behind the development of landscape elements which control avalanches, mud, rock, and landslides. The cultural, functional and aesthetic role of such elements in the landscape is relatively undiscussed, epitomising an approach that is primarily pragmatic in both engineering and expense. It is perhaps no surprise that these elements have a dominant physical and visual presence in the contemporary landscape. Through the investigation of synergies with other systems, interests, and design potential for such landscape elements, it is proposed that new potential can be found in their implementation. This research proposes that the intuitive linking of common design software to direct landslide simulation, design of and cultural use can interact with these natural processes. This paper shall demonstrate methods to within which design can enter the process of landscape management, linking the modelling processes of the landscape designer with the simulation capabilities of the specialised engineer.

summary Humanity is currently facing an environmental crisis driven by our reliance on fossil fuels and our indiscriminate use of global resources. To address this we investigate the development of a sustainable new material, nano-cellulose. Nano-fibrillated Cellulose (NFC) is a highly renewable material processed from wood fibres. In this research we present a new method for processing renewable Nano-fibrillated Cellulose into a bulk material. Presently, traditional wood fibre is utilized extensively; it is used in the production of paper, clothing, and buildings. This research asks if wood fibre could be utilized in applications that go beyond its traditional uses? Using an iterative approach, the research reveals the challenges of working directly in the processing and production of nano-fibrillated cellulose, a high-performance bio-polymer requiring no adhesives and no petrochemicals as a finished product. The paper presents these experiments and discusses the feasibility for using nano-cellulose in building products.

summary This paper analyses how architecture became a pioneer discipline in digital interactivity research. It describes how that pioneer research derives from a lineage of researchers whose work spans more than two decades beginning in the early fifties. Military funds enabled the creation of the first computer graphic interfaces that evolved into a "drawing machine", the first interactive CAD, that made possible the role of architecture as a pioneering discipline in interactivity research. It is expected to demonstrate that the same architecture that nowadays uses mainly interactive digital design was one of first disciplines to research interactivity addressing a gap in the study of the link between architecture and interactivity.

source SIGraDi’2000 - Construindo (n)o espacio digital (constructing the digital Space) [4th SIGRADI Conference Proceedings / ISBN 85-88027-02-X] Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) 25-28 september 2000, pp. 38-40
summary In the earl’s nineties, when the www start to be popular, it had a configuration given by the academics. This sites worked as a data base where you could get specific information. In a very fast way the commercial sites get in to the www just to be there with a strong institutionally presence. In the middle nineties the possibility of incorporate sound and video to the Internet give the possibility to the appearance of entertainment sites as an option for television. During the last year we saw a new change in the digital landscape of the Internet, the commercial sites start to move trough a new concept: the e-commerce. The WWW is not just a way of communication, it is a distribution channel. In a society where the information is one of the most required commodity, the bit is not just information, is the digital tool for the new global economy. Because the laws of the market does not agree with the anarchic and chaotic spirit that give the first breath to the net of nets, this phenomenon make a great impact in the Internet. The subject of this work is the study of this phenomenon and to analyze the behavior of this “new kids on the Net” and the alternatives facing the advance of the market trough the right of free access to information.

summary Current research departs from the WikiHouse an open-source constructive system that enables self-construction and customization in engineered wood. The public platform favours the design and construction using CNC technology and digital manufacture. However, the system application and form vocabulary are bounded to orthogonal profiles geometry. Current research intended to automate the system in an algorithm and to expand the design to curved geometries, what was tested using digital fabrication in 1:1. The system developed allows the personalization of solutions of shell-like geometries that might use less material in more robust solutions, opening new design possibilities for the system.

summary This paper addresses the impact of digital support on the management and organization of information, with the aim of demonstrating its usefulness in connecting data during collection and systematization processes in scientific research. The research methodology involves practical simulation, correlating content obtained from a systematic literature review with the functionalities of the Obsidian 1.3.5 software. The results highlighted the advantage of a more intuitive visualization of the interconnection between information and the predominant identification of significant key topics, allowing a clear understanding of the main areas of focus in the articles analyzed. The mapping also made it possible to group themes by their affinity, revealing thematic clusters and facilitating the identification of recurring patterns. In this sense, the study emphasizes the benefits for researchers of incorporating digital resources into the process of development of scientific productions.

title Sistema interativo para análise das relações de afinidade entre o círculo e a elipse [Interactive system for analysis of the circle and ellipse affinity relations]
source SIGraDi 2002 - [Proceedings of the 6th Iberoamerican Congress of Digital Graphics] Caracas (Venezuela) 27-29 november 2002, pp. 258-260
summary This paper will try to establish a dialogue between the process of rational geometric construction and the intuitive process of discovering shapes. This will involve: a geometric principle that works as a geometric generation law and two interactive macros. The geometric principle is the affinity between circles and ellipses. The macros, developed in VisualLisp languagefor AutoCAD, allow the students to construct 3D abstract structures. In order to provide support for the student in the task of analysing the 3D structures a methodology has been established to classify shapes giving each one an alphanumeric string. The string reflects the transformation order during the creation of each spacial structure. With the aid of interactivity it is intended that this exercise in discovering space creates a tension allowing the rational and intuitive states of mind overlap.

title The Nazca Lines and their Digital Architectural Representation
source CAADRIA 2007 [Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia] Nanjing (China) 19-21 April 2007
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2007.x.r9m
summary This paper relates to a digital architectural design experience in 2005 for the Nazca Competition. Nazca is an archaeological site situated about 400 kilometers south of Lima, Peru. It is a large desert with gigantic millenary geoglyphs carved on the surface, which can only be seen clearly from above. The Nazca geoglyphs are made up of hundreds of lines, spirals and triangular plazas, as well as zoomorphic figures like birds, fish, spider, etc. The Nazca Competition asked for an observatory-lodge of approximately 1.000m2 with 20 rooms, communal bathrooms, supporting areas and an observatory tower of at least 100 meters. The observatory-lodge was designed using a digital representation technique called "Genetically Constructed Structures". The structure was created using the geometric principle of the affinity of two conic sections: circle and ellipse. The form was produced transforming the circle and the ellipse by performing basic geometric transformations (translation, rotation, reflection and scaling). According to this technique, the sequence of transformations was codified in the form of an alphanumerical string, metaphorically named the "DNA structure". The code was inserted as extended data into the entities which shaped the structure profiles. The algorithms were programmed with AutoLISP language. The "DNA code" allowed the structure to be constructed and deconstructed from any point, generating many different forms, to be studied and compared. One year later, the same 3D model was used to test another digital technology called "musical box" where their geometrical points are captured, read and translated into musical parameters, generating music. In this paper we will present the graphical form of the tower as well as the music associated.

summary This article reports the experience of creating a support application for designing kinetic facades. The tool´s goal is the creation of a visual simulation system that permits full control over the movement of geometric patterns. In this case, we try to control the variation of polarized glasses used on architectural facades. The study presents a modeling technique of geometrical grids created and controlled by modular arithmetic operations. The programmed algorithm allows performing periodic geometric patterns. The research is aimed at formalizing a library of patterns and types of possible movements through ratings and an abstract symbolic representation.

summary This article reports on the methodology for creating an ontology constructor application (API). The API writes the ontology in OWL (Ontology Web Language). To implement the system, two elements were used: 1) a set of Excel spreadsheets that contain the hierarchical and logical structure of classes, object properties, data properties, and instances for testing purposes. These elements will define the ontological axiomatics within a well-defined BIM domain; and 2) a mechanism for processing the spreadsheets, programmed in Dynamo with DesignScript language. The mechanism reads the content of the spreadsheet and writes it in OWL format using the Manchester syntax. The work is introduced remembering some key concepts present in research carried out in this field of computer science during the 80s and 90s. The use of ontologies aims the integration of BIM data and Semantic Web, to operate digital construction environments within the Open Linked Data paradigm.

summary This research investigates the adequacy of the contemporary professional formation to professional practice in the construction market. The work investigates the teaching of building and structures design in schools of architecture and civil engineering in Belo Horizonte. There is evidence that the use of contemporary information technology such as BIM (Building Information Modeling) enables integrated teaching of architecture and engineering, allowing simultaneous work. The hypothesis is that there is a mismatch between contemporary teaching and practice and methodological changes seeking simultaneous practice, respond adequately to contemporary assumptions of learning. The confirmation of this hypothesis subsidizes developments for future research.
