effect of the day

here is the skin effect produced by there space pavilion. "quiet interessent, isn't it ?!"

inspiration of the day

just have a look on this funny space pavilion. using plywood without any torsion they were abble to create this blubby shape.

physical model 02

here is a picture of the effect we're playing with. depending of the density of elements thickness of the "panels" becomes more or less important.

physical model 01

here are few plywood piecies whose geometry is directly based on the parametric grasshopper rhino model.

rhinoceros modeling

two parallel explorations about plywood elements deformations (left without / right witht torsion)

material system - evolution

still on working to combine plywood and textil ... here is something which could be a "sandwich" textil/plywood/textil. (in the model the strings are supposed to symbolize the textile)

material system researches

combining plywood and textil we are on trying drive all the compression through wood pieces and to fix the system using textil working in traction.
