| summary |
Morphology and Ornamentation investigates experimental design and fabrication studies following the theory of the Digital and the Ornament in architecture. The research identifies the traits of morphological correlations between digital design processes and features of CAM machinery. This paper presents a CAM fabricated wall relief, ‘Postdigital Textrin’, developed at the Department of Experimental Architecture in 2023 as part of the funded research project “Fragments of postdigital Ornamentation”. The project aimed to develop an economic and ecological design process for the fabrication of relief panels while simultaneously investigating the aesthetic attributes of the technological framework. The methodology utilises non-structural robotic printing, mainly with biocomposites. Significant findings could be made by understanding the print specifications, the material, and the path design during the iterative experimental phase. Based on the developed process, 12 m2 or 32 individual panels of puzzle-like polygonal silhouettes had been economically and efficiently fabricated and seamlessly assembled.
The project contributes to the investigation of sustainable and digital crafting strategies while identifying technology and compounding data as aesthetic drivers. |
