A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Drawing with bare hands. A hand-gesture based drawing experience with motion sensors
One of the features that makes analog drawing so fascinating is its manual component. The path of a graphite line on the sheet, the different pressure of the stroke, the texture described by an entropic movement, the unexpected residues of dirt, each of these things virtually refers to the intervention of a hand. This research unfolds around the idea of using the movement and gestures of the hands as a basis for the generation of forms for architectural design. Not three-dimensional models, but flat shapes, twodimensional digital drawings generated by the author's gestures. Through a Leap Motion sensor and a digital drawing program, all the various forms of freehand drawing were explored, finding an interesting result in the field of free shape generation linked to hand gestures. The result of this experience is a different way of seeing gestures as a generative tool of architectural forms, to be used into architectural design process.
