From Parametric Design to Digital Fabrication

The course spans more than 36 hours over 2 Weeks .
Time:  Starts around 23/6/19
Location: iHub Studio, Faculty of Engineering, ASU
CHEP Training Credit: 4 weeks
Cost:  2 Credit Hours​

​Instructor

Dr.  Ayman Assem

Parametric design and digital fabrication are two faces of the same medal. While recent advances in coding and scripting empower architects to write their own software, digital fabrication seamlessly communicates their design to machines and robots. Parametric design and digital fabrication reinforce each other through aforementioned constraining parameters; the first opening up a field of potentials, the second narrowing down possible solutions. In that sense, architects are to a lesser degree designers, than editors of scripts and parameters, orchestrating geometries and,ultimately, working towards a non-standard understanding of design.

In this workshop, a primary set of tools will offer an introduction to parametric design generating geometries for fabrication. Trainees will understand, manipulate and produce a series of codes 
(rhino scripts) in a 3D modeler (rhino and grasshopper) and use these codes to generate complex geometries and prepare them for digital fabrication in the lab.  Each tool in digital fabrication has a specific range of operation (size, scale, direction, material to use, etc). This range will delimit the output of the parametric design part to a set of feasible options. These options will then be prepared for and tested in the digital fabrication lab.
