New Progress




The enclosure sections are function part,some of them are rest room,,some are platform.

Next step:
1.Finish the whole function part.(update On Sunday)
2.Modify

Root_star_step1


Root growth path will be restricted by the pot.Sometimes they will grow along the edge of the pot.Because of the gravity,most root in the bottom.
I want to use this in the project.See the site 20*20*100 as the boundary.Use braiding,weaving and bifurcation to fill it.Function part is in order.surface part is a little disorder.




Next step:
1.Modify the form.Add more lines on the surface.
2.Function part enclosure.
I will update before Friday.

Next step:
1.I will modify the form,and add the enclosure
2.Function part

step1-1:Building form

Dear Matias and Sandra:
This is the basic form of the whole building.
What I will do next is how to connect them.
I am thinking one way is use component with
different pattern.Because I want to keep the
structure.and it is a 100m tower,this kind of
structure is easy to build.Another way is to use
bifurcation to connect them.I will upload new
process before Monday.

Best regard:
Chong

Step1

From the foam I learn there are some of the form and structure can be connected without seam,
like basic square.Also some the foam form,like Weaire–Phelan structure,an irregular pentagonal dodecahedron and a tetrakaidecahedron with 2 hexagons and 12 pentagons, again with slightly curved faces. Like “Kelvin structure”,this is the convex uniform honeycomb formed by the truncated octahedron, which is a 14-sided space-filling polyhedron (a tetrakaidecahedron), with 6 square sides and 8 hexagonal sides.

The site is 20m*20m,and the hight is 100m.I use the basic form to fill the the whole space.Because two sides of the site square is street. In order to avoid the 100-meter-high tower will bring pressure in the pedestrian,I will use grasshopper ,affect the entire geometry with a line.
form of randomly generated
Generated different sizes of cell bodies randomly, connect them together, and then export the connection point of the structure.



Next step: the point as the basic point,use braiding,weaving and bifurcation to make the surface and the structure.
