Towards Zero-Waste Furniture Design [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 2017 In traditional design, shapes are first conceived, and then fabricated. While this decoupling simplifies the design process, it can result in inefficient material usage, especially where off-cut pieces are hard to reuse. The designer, in absence of explicit feedback on material usage remains helpless to effectively adapt the design -- even though ...
