In the Computational Fabrication course, I explored parametric design and digital fabrication through a series of 2D and 3D projects. The course emphasized the integration of coding and fabrication techniques, resulting in functional and artistic designs.
Project Highlights:
Processing & Laser Cutting: Developed custom algorithms in Processing to generate intricate 2D patterns, which were then laser cut into physical forms.
Grasshopper & Rhinoceros: Created parametric 3D models using Grasshopper scripts within Rhinoceros, allowing for flexible and iterative design adjustments.
Python for 3D Printing: Implemented Python code to further customize and optimize designs for 3D printing, exploring complex geometries and functional forms.
Through these projects, I gained hands-on experience in computational design, honing my skills in Processing, Python, Rhinoceros, and Grasshopper. This course provided a strong foundation in translating digital concepts into physical objects, reinforcing my passion for merging technology with design.
Project 1: Coding in Processing for Laser Cut Parametric Designs
Project 2: 3D Parametric Models using Rhinoceros and Grasshopper
Project 3: 3D Parametric "chair" and "table" models using Rhinoceros and Grasshopper, and fabricated using 3D printer
