Digital Clay

  • ‌Tehran, Iran
    Summer 2020
    Individual, One week workshop
    By Digital Futures
    Instructor: Negar Kalantar & Jason Johnson

Digital Clay workshop was hold in order to introduce ceramic material systems in architectural applications. The goal of this workshop was to engage participants in a design exercise that links computational design to robotic deposition processes which will be simulated in a virtual robotic fabrication environment.

Form Finding 

The final form of this project was driven from the famous koch snowflake pattern. After defining the appropriate number of iterations of the koch snowflake, according to the object’s dimentions to function as a vase, the sharp edges of the shape designed to be smooth for its aestheticalll aspects. Finally the shape was rotated in different angles and heights to vivify its surrounding space.
