MANIPULATING SURFACE INTO VOLUME WITH SPATIAL VERBS
ARTIFACT This thesis suggests manipulating a 2D planar surface through spatial verbs – folding, weaving, wrapping as a fundamental design tool of generating the 3D volumetric hybrids. This inspires a logic and systematic approach on consideration of spatial character or

dynamic optimisation
Step 1: Geometry Description: Select several geometry such as doubly ruled surfaces, ellipsoid as prototype, find the parameters to control geometry and generate fabrication data. Step 2: Geometry performance study: based on different purpose, using programs to analysis the natural
