The aim of this study is to combine geometric, productive and constructive aspects with form-finding processes, keeping their selfcompatibility with designers' intentions, Pottmann [1]. For this purpose, a parametric tool has been developed to adapt the cross-panel system to a wide number of target surfaces, by changing the joints angles and, at the same time, maintaining the orthogonality between panels. The experimentation went on with a case study involving a production and assembly phase using digital fabrication tools, for the construction of a temporary wooden pavilion.
