Description
Summary:This article presents an experimental exercise to Bending-Active (FA): “Flexo.In-Form”, whose objective is to use flexion behavior as a design tool based on work applied to structures that base their geometry on the elastic deformation of initially flat laminar elements. In this sense, the AF is presented as the instrumentalization of one of the - "new'' - capacities inscribed in the Digital Materiality (MD) from a Performance-Based Design Approach (EDOD) - and not as a predefined structural typology - and opens possibilities for the design of curved architectural envelopes. The methodological proposal is based on the "form-finding", analog-digital, as an EDOD. In instrumental terms, parametric modeling -o f algorithmic mathematical logic-, digital simulation -for the prediction of physical behavior-, the evaluation of computational numerical calculation, and finally, CNC manufacturing operates by gathering the instances of ideation, simulation, analysis and manufacturing from a continuous logic that feeds back and informs the model from the data obtained at each moment. In this sense, empiricalanalytical experimentation is digitally amplified through Integrative Processes (IP) that constitute new procedures and approaches to rethink ideation processes and open multiple possibilities to emancipate - from the modern paradigm - the material condition in architecture.
