Shading device First of all I used the Morph 3D to array the pattern. This 3D surface will be the façade of a building. Depending on how much light is needed, the single pieces of the surface can fold together. Different opening scenarios: Closed – some openings –...
Step 1. Select A Mesh, if uneven and unruly, use weaverbird’s smoothing component to simplify the mesh. Step 2. The Loop Subdivision works to subdivide the mesh inherent triangular geometry into smaller triangles, if you want a simple structure, you may want to stop at this component. ...
Similar to the software ArcGIS, Elk reads OSM data (Openstreetmap) and displays information on selected cities. OSM data can be downloaded by cropping a region and exporting. The downloaded OSM is read by information type. Selecting one data type allows further selection of subgroups. Example: Selecting the type...
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...
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...
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.
My design is starting with simple two curves and divide them to form dots, connecting dots to dots to form the basic canvas surface and use the lines formed from dots to become the preliminary skleton of beams.
For this assignment, I am developing a shell structure that function as a entry hallway for a house where the form is found through kangaroo and karamba and a pattern module applied to the structure that changes depending on the position of the sun. This series of pictures...
