Abstract:
The construction of free-form surfaces is limited to what is possible by graphical and constructive control. An important line of research, not only in architecture but also in engineering, even sculpture, has been the adaptation of free forms by developable surfaces using different systems, many of them based on differential geometry. Re-interpreting some issues of projective geometry that allows the use of certain CAD software, and jumping from physical to digital drawing systems, a method has been developed that allows the adaptation of free forms by developable strips.
