Reaction-Diffusion C3DP Bench

Generative Reaction Diffusion explores the application of biological growth principles to robotic concrete 3D printing. Using reaction-diffusion simulations, the project creates complex branching patterns that are directly translated into printable toolpaths.

The resulting geometry produces a porous seating structure that balances material efficiency, structural rigidity, and environmental integration. Designed for community garden environments, the bench incorporates internal porosity capable of supporting vegetation while maintaining the stability required for public use.

The project also investigates the influence of surface curvature on printability, demonstrating that double-curved surfaces significantly improve structural performance during fabrication and after installation.
