Zen Vs Chaos
f(design) = ∫ chaos × order dt
Design isn't just about aesthetics—it's about understanding the underlying systems. Every curve follows a formula, every structure obeys physics, and every experience is engineered.
I blend computational precision with human intuition, creating objects that are both mathematically elegant and emotionally resonant. The chaos is intentional. The order is invisible.

Algorithmic modeling with Grasshopper, creating systems that adapt and evolve through mathematical relationships.
Exploded views, assembly drawings, and dimensional specifications that communicate complex mechanisms clearly.
Photorealistic renders, animations, and interactive 3D experiences that bring concepts to life before fabrication.
Structural analysis, kinetic simulations, and dynamic systems modeling to validate designs before production.
Immersive museum experiences that blend physical and digital, creating memorable encounters with ideas.
From file to physical: CNC routing, 3D printing, laser cutting, and hybrid manufacturing processes.
I'm Daniel Andujar — an industrial designer based in Vancouver, BC, originally from Madrid. I work at the intersection of computational geometry and physical fabrication, designing everything from museum exhibitions to public sculpture to immersive children's environments. My background spans a BA in Industrial Design (ESD Madrid), a postgraduate in Illustration, and an unfinished aerospace engineering degree that still shapes how I think about structure and form.
My process runs from the first sketch all the way to CNC code and on-site installation. I start by asking how nature solves the problem — then move through Rhino, Grasshopper, flat cutting files, manufacture drawings, and the shop floor. Currently Senior Industrial Designer at 3D Services Vancouver, developing custom exhibits and public environments from concept to completion. Fabrication limits are part of the design material, not obstacles to it.
"La moda pasa, el estilo permanece" — Coco Chanel
In 1933, Alfonso Bialetti created the Moka Express—an octagonal aluminum coffee maker that would become a symbol of Italian design. Its form, inspired by his wife's silhouette, proved that engineering and art could be one.
Four decades later, Marcello Gandini drew the Lamborghini Countach—a wedge-shaped spacecraft for the road. Like the Moka, it was radical, angular, and unmistakably Italian.
"The Moka is inscribed in the collective memory of the Italian people. It formalised the ritual of making coffee at home." — Alberto Alessi, 2011
This LEGO interpretation connects these threads—aluminum precision, bold geometry, the silver dreams of the space age. Found in 9 out of 10 Italian homes, displayed in MoMA and the Smithsonian, these designs transcend function to become culture.
Every great project starts with a conversation. Whether you have a clear vision or just a spark of chaos, I'd love to hear from you.
