About
Suryansh Chandra’s research sits at the intersection of computational design, digital fabrication, and architectural geometry, with a particular focus on curved-folded structures. His most cited work, “Design-friendly strategies for computational form-finding of curved-folded geometries: a case study” (2014), demonstrates his approach to bridging the gap between digital simulation and physical construction. In this study, Chandra developed a scaled, numerically controlled fabrication process inspired by manual paper scoring and folding, enabling the creation of complex curved-folded geometries through robotic means. The built prototype showcased how computational form-finding can be integrated with contemporary architectural and engineering practices, highlighting synergies between design intent and fabrication constraints. Though his citation count is modest, his work is notable for its hands-on, design-friendly methodology that prioritizes accessibility and practical application over purely theoretical exploration. Chandra’s contributions are particularly valuable for students and researchers interested in how digital tools can be adapted for real-world fabrication, offering a clear example of how computational geometry can be translated into tangible architectural prototypes.
