Abstract

This paper studies the development of a semi-automated process for designing and fabricating node-based lattice spatial structures using bamboo as an ecological material. The study addresses the challenges of integrating bamboo—a naturally variable material—into spatial structures and was conducted through a hybrid workshop at the Digital Craft House, University of Art, Tehran, during COVID-19. Traditional CAD tools are often limited when applied to non-industrialized, organic materials like bamboo. This research introduces a tailored computational workflow and a semi-automated fabrication apparatus explicitly designed to create complex, freeform bamboo structures. Combining online and in-person sessions allowed participants to engage with both the theoretical and practical aspects of the design-to-fabrication process. This approach enabled the continuous development and refinement of custom tools and methods during COVID. The workshop showcased how synthesizing advanced computational approaches and natural materials could trigger new architectural solutions and autonomy by developing a single-layer, freeform spatial structure, promoting ecological and advanced architectural practices.
