Beskrivelse
This workshop, Free-Form Timber Structures with Dovetail Lap Joint System, is tailored for architecture students eager to explore the intersection of traditional craftsmanship and modern computational design. The course focuses on the dovetail lap joint system—a time-honored method of timber joinery—reimagined through the lens of advanced digital tools to create innovative, free-form structures. Throughout the workshop, participants will dive into the principles of geometry processing and computational design using software like Rhino and Grasshopper. They will learn how to design complex, organic forms that incorporate dovetail lap joints, ensuring both structural integrity and aesthetic fluidity. The workshop will also cover the practical aspects of digital fabrication, guiding students through the process of translating their designs into reality using CNC milling and other cutting-edge techniques. Over three days, students will move from conceptual design to hands-on fabrication, culminating in the assembly of a collaborative timber structure. This experience will not only enhance their technical skills but also deepen their understanding of how computational tools can augment traditional architectural practices. Ideal for architecture students with an interest in timber construction and digital design, this workshop provides a unique opportunity to blend theory with practice, resulting in a tangible, collaborative project that showcases the potential of modern timber architecture.Periode | 2024 |
