  • Use of digital solutions in architecture and timber construction
    Kitek Kuzman, Manja ; Haviarova, Eva ; Kariž, Mirko
    Inspiration for creating innovative and exciting structures has always been nature with its flowing, organic forms, which have evolved for maximum optimization and efficiency. Organic architecture is ... based on studies of nature-based forms, which as a rule, are seldom straight. The design and implementation of such flowing shapes are more complex than working with orthogonal shapes. It requires good spatial performance, geometry knowledge, and suitable design tools and techniques. Digitalization has facilitated the development of complex geometric and free-form shapes that were not manageable before with simple design tools. Thanks to the broadened potential of computing, parametric design, and digital manufacturing, it is now possible to design more complex structural elements and structures that deviate from orthogonal practices. Architects and engineers consider using computers and computation techniques for planning and looking for solutions to a given design problem. The traditionally used materials and newly engineered wood products (EWPs) offer greater design freedom for ambitious construction and advanced manufacturing processes. Educational programs and student outputs dealing with digitalization processes will also be presented
