Sun shading device
My design is about how we can use sun shading device to control how much sun light we get in to the building. First condition is 9am, it’s completely close and not allowing sunlight go through the device, the second condition is noon, it allows sunlight go through...
burning man sculpture
The sculpture is basic on the hexagon shape and it starts rotating 20 degrees. Each grid point is surrounded by six unit triangles. Each border unit triangle has three unit triangles that touch the border, and between two arbitrary neighbouring grid points, there is always a hexagon composed...

David Lieberman – Presence Pavilion
THE PRESENCE PAVILION: This pavillion is a representation of two types of forces. Physical, structural forces dictate the size of the beams as they change length and angle. The structure is pure and truthful, it tells you exactly what it is. The other force at play is the...
Burning Man Shading Structure Design
Building on my earlier experiments with Voronoi patterns and attractor points, I redesigned my Burning Man Pavilion. The previous form was not deliberate so much as it was just a shape to experiment the manipulation of a pattern. This new design emerges from the ground, more directly relating...
Shading Device
This geometry is designed to fit into the competition that I am working on. The surface is imagined as an adaptable facade which changes due to solar conditions. Openings enlarge and shrink according to they’re normal relationship to the sun.
Shading Structure Prototyping
The previous solar shading device was adapted into a pavilion, requiring its own form and spatial definition. Switching to enclosed reference curves allowed the shading structure to morph into a more spherical shape. The lofted shape was exploded and broken down into triangular panels. The edges of these...
Shading Structure Prototype
In this scheme, two series of panels are aligned and hinge at the midline to create “V” shapes that protrude from the facade of the building. In this 1-2 pattern, the 1’s protrude further while the 2’s remain closer to the glazing. The sun is allowed in at...
