Michael Hansmeyer: Building unimaginable shapes

The video explores the potential of designing forms without bias or preconceptions by drawing inspiration from nature's processes, particularly morphogenesis. It discusses using algorithms to fold and create complex three-dimensional structures, emphasizing the importance of designing processes rather than specific forms. The video also highlights the application of these concepts in architecture, particularly in designing columns, and the challenges of transitioning from virtual designs to physical models. The speaker envisions a future where architects orchestrate design processes to create innovative structures.

How can architects utilize information contained in simple forms to create new designs?

How does the text suggest we can control the folding of surfaces?

What is the relationship between the virtual and physical models in architecture as discussed?

What insights does the project provide about unseen objects in architecture?
