Abstract

This paper presents an interim report of an investigation into a digital design and production workflow to generate, rationalise and fabricate triangulated extruded shell foam structures. It reports on a speculative form-finding and geometry-generation process, a rationalisation approach, a new type of hot-wire-cutting robot and early findings gathered regarding technical and design strategies, geometric and fabrication constraints, as well as an outline of related future work.
