Its a bit simple... ... trying to break the curvey form down (in plan) into lines and circles ... using the tangent of circles and joining them with straight lines to create a simplified form...any ideas on how to do it in 3d maybe?? ... was thinking once i simplify it in 3d then i could rebuild in the simplified form and then hopefully build a prototype for hooke park?
Still so many naked edges... will get it done but just some interior views for now
taking sections through the model at spaces of 1.5 metres for beams.
Thinking about the globular structure in terms of Sendair mediatheque where vertical sections create a column structure where the lateral contour beams of the curve give rigidity and so it acts as a column as a whole.
taking profiles for beams ... where the floor beams are the same piece as the glob structure.
I think i will look at how the rectilinear floors interact with the globby structure.
Currently the model is at 21 by 16 metres at 1:1 scale... was thinking at 1:20 scale approx 1.05 by 0.8 metres
