From Architectural Intent to Physical Model

Representing the Chiostro della Carità by Andrea Palladio with New Technologies

  • Conference paper
Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures 2005

Abstract

The research presented here addresses the subject of the analysis of partially executed architecture. Information for such analyses has been gathered with the use of laser instruments. The paper aims to show a method for processing the laser-surveyed data using geometric modelling software to construct the physical model of the structure through the use of prototypes created with a variety of materials. The laser technology is is interpreted using an additive system (referred to as physical polymerization).
