Title:
Abstract:	Blickfang der zeitgenössischen Architektur ist seit mehreren Jahren die so genannte Freiform-Architektur. Diese überzeugend zu planen ist viel mehr als eine Frage der Form - erst mit einer sauberen Fügung der Bauteile und einer konstruktionsbewussten Ausarbeitung der Einzelteile wird diese auch im Detail zum Erfolg. Im Idealfall sind der materialgerechten Formbarkeit durch innovative Technik fast keine Grenzen gesetzt. Rolling out of architectural design intent - Approximation of freeform surfaces by developable strips. For a number of years the eye catcher of contemporary architecture has been so called Freeform-Architecture. To design such in a convincing manner, it takes far more than the mere shape - only when the composition of the whole and the parts takes place in a construction aware manner, the project will be successful. Ideally innovative technology can almost remove the geometric constraints when forming materials by appropriate processes.
