Fluid Morphology
Fluid Morphology is a design approach in computational design where digital tools help create shapes that look and behave like liquids or soft materials. Designers use algorithms to simulate how fluids move, stretch, and blend, then turn those patterns into building forms, furniture, or digital graphics. This method lets designers make smooth, flowing shapes that can change in real time, responding to things like wind, light, or user movement. By using fluid rules, designers can test many versions quickly and pick the one that works best for their project. This process is often used in architecture to make buildings with curved walls or in product design for objects with soft, organic lines.
