A few notes after the 1st weaving session

To fully understand the challenges of Weaveology from the point of view of weaving, it is essential to understand the stages the designer traditionally goes through to design a woven fabric on a jacquard loom. The woven fabric, as designed in Europe, is made up of zones filled with a repeating weaving pattern. Each of these areas is represented by a solid color, known as a ‘technical color’, which corresponds to one weaving pattern. This means that during the design process, for each color, the designer focuses on the properties of each pattern individually. Through Weaveology, we are using a methodology and technique similar to those used by pointillist painters. Instead of painting a flat expanse of color, they painted pure strokes of paint to create optical mixtures. Here, we're not focusing on a single pattern which, when repeated, will fill an area with technical color, but on a set of weaving patterns which, assembled like a mosaic, will fill an area with technical color. In terms of methodology, this means that the designer must first determine the properties, or features, to which a set of weaving patterns will respond. Next, he/she must select the ones he/she will keep for weaving and generate a kind of ‘mosaic’ for each technical color.

The AU project leverages the benefits of additive manufacturing , (AM), computational design and the use of composite materials to drive innovation in the medical and healthcare sector. By integrating these advanced technologies, AU aims to:

Optimize pressure distribution and comfort using personalized pressure mapping data.

Reduce weight, product size, and part count, enhancing ergonomics and usability.

Ensure more effective cooling and breathability.

Extend product longevity, performance, and customizability.

Introduce cutting-edge aesthetics to help combat stigma.

Improve sustainability by prioritizing additive over traditional subtractive manufacturing processes.

Designing Minds: Rethinking Architectural Education in the Age of Computation

Is Architectural Education Ready for the Digital Revolution? In an age where buildings are simulated before they're built, why is architectural education still lagging?

Architect Sejal Mengaji speaks to Sushant Verma, Ramnath Nayak, and Vinay Mathais—practitioners driving the shift toward computational thinking and hands-on digital exploration in design studios.

How do you feel about this chapel? Share your thoughts in the comments! Sayama Forest Chapel, designed by Hiroshi Nakamura & NAP, is inspired by Japanese Gassho structures. The main structure is formed from a series of excessively pointed gables constructed using larch wood beams. These meet the ground and are arranged in a snowflake-like formation. The shapes reference traditional Japanese Gassho structures, where two pillars support one another. The name of these structures refers to the shape made with the hands while in prayer.

Hello world weaveology!

weavology - an inFORMed Weaved Matter research project

by Maude Guirault - Computationa and Textile designer & Andrea Graziano - Computational designer - Co-de-iT

"The Analytical Engine weaves algebraic patterns, just as the Jacquard loom weaves flowers and leaves." Ada Lovelace

The deep connection between the automation of weaving looms and the mechanical processing of information is well-known. It lies at the root of modern information technology. Weaving looms are implemented using patterns called ‘weaving patterns’, i.e. a binary code made of 0 and 1 and visually described as black and white pixels that control the behaviour of the threads to weave complex patterns.

But, if 0 and 1 are the basic set of information, the transition between them defines the weaving operation; the number of transitions and the positioning of them define not only the aesthetic result but also the tactile and physical properties of the fabric. These are precisely the premises of our research.

It is relatively easy nowadays to generate algorithms exploring all the possible billions of permutations of textile patterns but how can we organize all this complexity? What are the resulting differences in terms of physical properties of this incredible abundance of variation going beyond the mere aesthetic result? Is it possible to recognize and establish the correspondence between the 0s and 1s and the resulting physical behavior of the fabric?

A computational design strategy to detect the physical properties as textile features, to clusterize the incredible amount of possibly generated patterns and to articulate and organize that variety into a weaving process could eventually enable a novel approach to textile design & weaving.

Is there still room for novelty in one of the most explored human-machine interactions?

Weaveology starts as an open research, as it could lead in very different directions depending on the specific investigated aspects, the chosen materials, the used machines and facilities and the research opportunities. As an independent research group, we are open to collaborations and looking for research funding opportunities. We are also available for mentoring workshops and seminars in both academic and non-academic environments.
