Designers have long relied on steam bending, lamination techniques, kerf cuts, and considerable craft to shape curved wood. What if wood could be programmed to shape itself beyond bending, making complex forms more affordable? We present a computational framework for 3D printing wood-based hygromorphic structures that morph from initially flat sheets into two distinct doubly curved, non-developable surfaces upon hydration and dehydration. Our tool supports both forward and inverse design: starting from primitives or a target geometry, it generates deposition toolpaths and predicts wet and dry states. We characterize anisotropic swelling and shrinkage to calibrate the simulator and evaluate accuracy via corresponding point-pair distances on simulated and printed forms. Finally, we present primitive-based designs and three application demonstrations using our framework. By coupling material behavior with design intent on consumer-grade printers, our framework reduces skill and equipment barriers and enables new fabrication and design possibilities in wood-based practice.

In our everyday eating habits, we benefit from the diverse properties of natural food ingredients, from their taste and aroma to their texture. To further expand this potential, we draw inspiration from architected materials, in which engineered structures impart new mechanical properties. Building on this idea, we introduce kirigami and origami structures into fresh ingredients to embed new functionalities. Our design tool let users create custom, interchangeable rollers that apply cuts and folds to thinly sliced ingredients. By combining different structures with the inherent properties of food, users can transform everyday eating experiences across various contexts. To support users, we share experimental results with example ingredients to help them identify appropriate design parameters. Finally, we present several exemplar concepts in a recipe-style format to illustrate new interaction possibilities enabled by our reproducible fabrication pipeline.

Flower jellies, a delicate dessert in which a flower-shaped jelly floats inside another clear jelly, fascinate people with both their beauty and elaborate construction. In efforts to simplify the challenging fabrication and enrich the design space of this dessert, we present Flower Jelly Printer: a printing device and design software for digitally fabricating flower jellies. Our design software lets users play with parameters and preview the resulting forms until achieving their desired shapes. We also developed slit injection printing that directly injects colored jelly into a base jelly, and shared several design examples to show the breadth of design possibilities. Finally, the user study with novice and experienced users demonstrates that our system benefits creators of all experience levels by iterative design and precise fabrication. We hope to enable more people to design and create their own flower jellies while expanding access and the design space for digitally fabricated foods.
