DIGITAL DESIGN
Computational Designers
AM designers employ a computational design approach. They program their design software and the software designs automatically the products based on the parameters. These computational designers might not come from a design background, they have not done any formal education in computational design and they are self-taught.
Key points:
01
Programming is part of AM designers' work. They design computational design tools themselves.
02
Computational Designers are self-taught and they have learned the skills they use in formalised education programs.
"Many of the computational designers are engineers and architects, not so much from the design background, but we are all linked by a systemic view of the process.”
Luis Bugin
