Aryan Garg (Dastan)
Computational Designer
Working under the name Dastaan, Aryan drives the studio's computational design practice — using Rhino and Grasshopper to turn complex, free-form geometry into something that can actually be fabricated and built. His work spans parametric facades, generatively-resolved structural forms, and the studio's digital fabrication projects, including its 3D-printed product line.
He treats the computational process itself as part of the design — letting simulated forces and constraints shape a form, rather than sculpting a shape and hoping it holds up structurally.
"Let the geometry tell you what it wants to be under load — don't force a form and then go looking for a way to build it."
