This paper outlines three case studies that explore the relationship between form, material behavior, and light performance. Each case study appropriates methods of computational analysis, parametric design, and digital fabrication to construct directed light fields and patterns from architectural surfaces in public spaces. Each project explores how controlled conditions of materiality and light phenomena may provide opportunities to reengage the physicality of human experience by generating effects that attempt to enhance human interaction and spatial perception.
