Generative Girih: Translating Persian Girih Geometric Systems into Computational, Immersive and Interactive Spatial Narratives
Research Summary
This research investigates how Persian Girih geometry can be translated into computational generative systems for the creation of adaptive spatial environments.
This research investigates how Persian Girih geometry can be translated into computational generative systems for the creation of adaptive spatial environments.
Girih patterns are historically constructed through rule-based geometric principles, producing complex visual structures from simple modular elements. Rather than approaching these patterns as static ornament, this research interprets them as early forms of algorithmic systems.
The project aims to extract the structural logic of Girih geometry and translate it into computational frameworks capable of generating dynamic and responsive spatial forms. Through the use of generative design tools and real-time technologies, these systems will be developed into immersive environments driven by parameters such as light, sound, and user interaction.
The research adopts a practice-based methodology, combining geometric analysis, computational modelling, and spatial prototyping. The outcome will contribute to the fields of creative computing, generative design, and immersive media by proposing new ways of connecting cultural geometric knowledge with contemporary digital systems.
