Physical Parametric Studies – Tudor Bertea & Emily Smietana
The premise behind this project was to study the form of waves in a structural manner, in both wall and canopy form. Synthetic fabric covered in a plaster coating was draped along its edge in various formations over an apparatus. The apparatus was set up to allow for different forms of waves on each side of the fabric, allowing the material to drape creating surfaces composed of many different combinations of wave forms – some symmetrical and some irregular.
