Blender is becoming an important player in the Architectural field. It is a great software for rendering and animation and an extremely powerful tool for mesh modeling. Working with meshes makes it possible to easily generate complex and organic shapes, allowing architects and designers to express their creativity without constraints. With this workshop, the participants will be able to move the first steps inside the software, creating complex shapes with a modular approach by working with a combination of simple components. In addition, carefully controlling the mesh's topology makes it possible to articulate directional patterns that follow the main shape. The workshop is for beginners and intermediates, so a basic understanding of Blender’s interface and the basic modeling commands is recommended.

Mesh Modeling Techniques: Gain foundational skills in mesh modeling using Blender, focusing on creating complex and organic shapes through a modular approach.
Topology Principles: Understand the importance of mesh topology and how it influences the design and articulation of forms.
Tissue Add-on Utilization: Learn to use the Tissue add-on for tessellation, allowing for the creation of intricate parametric models without scripting.
Organic Shape Creation: Develop an architectural pavilion by combining form-finding strategies with parametric modeling techniques.
Scalability of Techniques: Discover how the modeling principles taught can be applied across various scales, from architectural objects to urban design and beyond.

The scope of the workshop is to model a small architectural pavilion.The first part is dedicated to tutorials about mesh modeling and Tissue. During this part, the participants will understand the principles of mesh topology combined with Tissue’s tessellation. Working on an individual exercise, they will produce an organic main shape and a system of components that will characterize its skin.

During the workshop, we will work with Blender and the Tissue add-on to combine the flexibility of mesh modeling with the different tessellation strategies of Tissue. We will understand the correlation between mesh topology and tessellation strategies. Thanks to a combination of modifiers and Tissue, we will be able to create complex parametric models without the need for scripting or node interfaces. These methods will be applied to an architectural object, but their principles can be easily applied to different scales, from urban design to wearable products.

The students will learn the basic principles of Mesh modeling in Blender. In addition, thanks to a combination of form-finding strategies and parametric modeling using the Tissue add-on, they will also understand how to obtain functional and appealing architectural objects.
