From Architectural Intent to Physical Model: Representing the Chiostro della Carita by Andrea Palladio with New Technologies

摘要

The research presented here addresses the subject of the analysis of partially executedrnarchitecture. Information for such analyses has been gathered with the use of laser instruments. The paper aims to show a method for processing the laser-surveyed data using geometric modelling software to construct the physical model of the structure through the use of prototypes created with a variety of materials. The laser technology is is interpreted using an additive system (referred to as physical polymerization).
