Abstract:
This work presents an overview of the types of subdivision of free forms used in the architecture, as well as their methods and computational implementations, specifically aiming their application to sealing elements. A bibliographic review of the subject was carried out, as well as a specialist interview and parametric exploration of the methods collected in selected geometries for testing. Through this approach, the main ones of each type of subdivision were identified, aiming at the viabilization of works with free forms, as well as aspects of aesthetics and finishes.
Key words:
free forms; subdivision; parametric modeling; digital fabrication; CAD-CAM
