Computational designers

Connected Findings

  • Programming is part of AM designers’ work. They design computational design tools themselves. 
  • Computational Designers are self-taught and they have learned the skills they use in formalised education programs. 

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. 

"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,"
