Curved structural envelopes combine mechanical efficiency, architectural potential and a wide design space to fulfill functional and environment goals. The main barrier to their use is complexity of manufacturing, assembly and design. Significant progress has been made recently in the field of architectural geometry to tackle this issue, but many challenges remain. In particular, the following problem is recurrent in a designer’s perspective: Given a constructive system, what are the possible shapes, and how to reach them in an intuitive fashion? This thesis presents a panorama of morphogenesis methods under fabrication constraints. It then introduces four new methods to generate families of surfaces with particular geometrical properties ...
