summary |
The paper discusses an experimental design and fabrication process which employs digital fabrication and thermoforming. It presents the outcomes of a postgraduate design studio which took place at the Department of Architecture of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in Greece. Although thermoforming is a well-known process for product and packaging design, it has not been extensively explored with regards to architectural applications. This research by design seeks to cast light on thermoforming combined with digital fabrication with the aim to devise new customized production strategies, that can afford the design and fabrication of unconventional geometric configurations. |
