Non-Uniform Assemblage: Mass Customization In Digital Fabrication, Phillip Anzalone, Joseph Vidich, Joshua Draper Sep 2008

Non-Uniform Assemblage: Mass Customization In Digital Fabrication, Phillip Anzalone, Joseph Vidich, Joshua Draper

Publications and Research

This paper focuses on the development of parametric detailing, mass customization in CNC fabrication and its computational and handcrafted realizations in actualized built work. The projects studied are examples of student and faculty applied research work at Columbia University’s Graduate School of Architecture that engage parametric design strategies to integrate digital fabrication processes with manual assembly procedures, including prefabricated components and assemblies. The presented case studies include the design, fabrication and assembly of two full-scale pavilion projects.
