Project 3 Draft: Changing Light

I worked with Alex on our 3rd project.  This project focused on changing light, and was a combination of both my project and Alex’s.  Using the patterned screens Alex had been developing, we overlaid my transparent plastic film from my bounced color project.  We then selected different colors for the film and simulated the sun movement through the day.  As we moved the light across the box, the colors morphed.   For our final iteration of this video, I think we will be more selective on the colors we use.

About Nancy Cheng

Univ. of Oregon Architecture Department head Nancy Yen-wen Cheng, RA, LEED AP researches how design tools and approaches shape outcomes, with a specialization in how craft and computation can stimulate the creative process. She has developed expertise in manipulating sheet materials to create light-modulating structures and has researched how surface relief patterns can increase convective cooling. She has developed fold and slot joints that give structural rigidity to foldable sheet structures and is eager to apply them to rapidly deployable refugee shelters.
