The Future of Computational Design: Insights from CDfAM 2024
CDfAM 2024 wrapped up last week, and my head is on fire with thoughts and inspiration. Here is my take on the worlds best conference for computational design. There is no community like ours. How many other communities can boast about having a rockstar figurehead like Duann Scott throwing events…
Philosophies.
Accessible.
I design tools to be used by all. Humans and design cannot exist separately.
Use open-source, and give back to the community.
Functional.
Make good tools.
Don’t fight with your process. Use it to combat your complex challenges,
Relevant.
Everything needs to stay up-to-date with current trends. Observe what’s happening around you and keep up.
Fascinating.
Keep design fun. Blend form and function.
Make your results look cool. Because creativity should be celebrated in all it’s forms.
