CFD (conception, fabrication, digitale) is a one week workshop with graduate (master recherche) students of architecture school of Nancy. Having passed the first semester with a focus on modelling principles, computational logics and formal data representation, students are well prepared to apply them all in the process of form generation. The exercise is based on experimenting with new approaches in computational form generation interweaving geometry, aspects of construction and fabrication technologies. Key words: CAD/CAM technologies; form generation; digital design; digital fabrication; constructability; architectural education.

Based on the advancements of CAD/CAM technologies, this exercise explores the link between two stages of the process of creation of an architectural object; geometric modelling and respective manufacturing preparations. The main idea is to deal with the continuum of the form creation, from the first idea (designer’s mental image), through the geometric description, to the final physical model. The development of architectural vocabulary is largely related to recent advances in the world of digital design. Advanced CAD tools and geometric modellers allow the creation of forms that overtake Euclidian models. But digital also affects the universe of manufacturing; CNC technologies provide the possibility of creating physical version of

Recent advancements in digital representation and geometric description of architectural form are raising more and more questions concerning materialization. Construction and assembling constraints are parts of the data needed to rationalize a geometric model. This paper offers a report on part of a research project aimed at elaborating a tool capable of transforming geometric descriptions of non-standard forms to constructive geometry. KEYWORDS: digital fabrication, materialization, parametric modeling, timber construction, digital design tool. Design and Construction Architectural design is confronted with a renewal of formal vocabulary regarding the advancements of digital design tools. However, the capacity of representing and modeling more and more complex geometries (curves, surfaces, etc.) has been the principal driving objective of the development of...

Introduction of computational techniques and numeric poten tials to the process of architectural ... more Introduction of computational techniques and numeric poten tials to the process of architectural design has significantly challenged the process of form generation. Architectural morphogenesis denotes the generation of architectural form via its geometric adaptation to materiality and constructability. This work is presented as a part of a research activity which investigates integration of construction information as well as material properties to geometric description of the architectural form. Different aspects of arch itectural form are explored. Basic issues of the research were examined through a one week workshop experiment with architecture students.
