Looking Outwards: Computational Fabrication

I found the project of digital fabrication to design a bookshelf very appealing. It was done by using a Lamella system assembly integrated in freeform geometry to create a system of shelves that are interdependent on each other. It uses 5-axis CNC swarf cutting to maintain consistency for the surface at joints and the connecting points. I really like the flowing over all visual that is created by the rigid modular structure of the shelves. The irony within this is something that I really enjoy. It was done by the Ahtehha firm that used these shelves within a library that they were designing.
