Embedded Design Analysis

Workshop and lecture at the Muenster School of Architecture

In an earlier workshop in the semester Daniel Büning developed some formes employing topological optimization. These formes used as an research backdrop for investigating the behavior of linar planks for surface patterning. The physical behavior of planks was translated into an geometric algorithm and implemented into a Python component for Grasshopper: gPlanks.

Different patterns were tested and the planks itself were used as a tool for surface analysis.
