Full Article:

This research has as main objective to determine the possibilities and limitations of digital design and digital fabrication by 3D printing of a prototype of bionic pavilion with non-Euclidean geometric shapes in reduced size inspired by fruits present in the MidWest Region of Brazil. The work was structured in 3 stages: Rationale, Materials and Logistic, and Experimentation. The Rationale consisted of a literature review on the concepts of: bionics, generative-algorithmic design, digital fabrication, 3D printing and prototyping. The Materials and Logistics stage consisted of the presentation and classification into categories of materials and the logistics that were usedTthe experiment consisted of 4 phases: Graphic code and 3D digital modeling of the bionic pavilion; operationalization of digital fabrication; selection of 3D printing digital fabrication technology and; digital fabrication by 3D printing. The main result of the research is that digital technologies - rhinoceros 5.0 software, grasshopper software - allow to design a prototype of a pavilion of complex shape or of small size inspired by natural structures.
