gauss maps
computer-aided design
We explore the integration of Gauss maps into computational tools for design and fabrication, with a particular focus on architectural applications. The work presented here addresses this task by introducing novel discretisation theories, computational algorithms, and interactive tools that embed Gauss maps at three progressively deeper levels of geometric modelling: as a means to compute and interpret curvature for surface panelling, as an interactive visual tool to guide the design of developable surfaces, and as a modelling domain via isotropic geometry, enabling dual surface manipulation for the controlled roughening of a triangulation.
