Abstract
Free form architecture involves many problems of a geometric, structural and construction nature. In order to reach a feasible and affordable solution some optimization phases are required. The development of powerful tools such as parametric and algorithmic design software is allowing great freedom for shape design and remarkable control in managing large amounts of data. With these tools structural and construction factors can be integrated as rules for geometrical generation and optimization. The chapter presents a methodology for free form architecture engineering and an applied example, starting from a physical model of an arbitrary shape to a construction-aware detailed project.

The Surveying and Representation Process Applied to Architecture: Non-Contact Methods for the Documentation of Cultural Heritage
A 3D object composed of triangular facets. A mesh object has no true curvature, geometrically is composed of a set of vertices joined by many small flat surfaces, usually triangular or square, one adjacent to another. The appearance of curvature is achieved by increasing the number of faces (level of detail), and by edge smoothing during render time.

Platonic Solids and Spatial Visualization: Generating Complex Shapes Using Basic Three-Dimensional Operations
A polygon mesh is a collection of vertices, edges and faces that defines the shape of a polyhedral object in 3D computer graphics and solid modeling. The faces usually consist of triangles (triangle mesh), quadrilaterals, or other simple convex polygons, since this simplifies rendering, but may also be composed of more general concave polygons, or polygons with holes.

Higher Education Teaching and Learning With Augmented Reality
A web of identified points in space and lines drawn between them representing a computer's raw view of the three-dimensional space. This is commonly seen in the HoloLens when an application is mapping its environment, or when viewing layers of a 3D model.

A polygon mesh is a collection of vertices, edges and faces that defines the shape of a polyhedral object in 3D computer graphics and solid modeling. The faces usually consist of triangles (triangle mesh), quadrilaterals, or other simple convex polygons, since this simplifies rendering, but may also be composed of more general concave polygons, or polygons with holes.
