Shajay Bhooshan, lead researcher at Zaha Hadid Architects, used Maya and Algor Simulation software to create operative pathways from physically based simulation designs to structurally sound architectural models.
Form-finding
Inspired by analog architectural design methods that were established in the 19th century by architects like Antoni Gaudi, Bhooshan created a digital method to unite playful architectural form-finding with qualitative structural analysis in the early stages of the design process.
Structural analysis
Bhooshan created a plug-in for Maya to visualize stresses in real time, enabling him to integrate structural feedback into the form-finding process with minimal disruption to the creative experience.
