I am still working on simplifying structure and circulation for whole superblock.
In the process of sorting out public circulation (escalator core) the fact that access to each cluster always starts from top corner of upside down pyramid (The way containers were stacked. ) become interesting idea to develop design of a flat.

I wanted to cut entire cluster diagonaly as circulation within a cluster.
In first sc shot, a container is now separated into components, frame and panel.
Joint of 4 containers was cut off and rotated.
By following original positions of panels and new position traced from rotation of quint headed joint it makes slope.

This idea could also be really interesting in fabrication to do with lamination and curving of panels.

SInce there are so many staircase on the skin of superblock (as viewing stand) I want to have no stairs in flat as contrast.

I know it's really at the beginning of the tests and to tell the truth I can't really tell what it is you are doing - but I think it can be SUCH an interesting project. I am excited to see where it goes. So I just wanted to say have fun with it - and make sure use it to experiment, test and don't be afraid of failure! Your hooke park model didn't do what you intended it to do but it still was incredibly interesting so expect the unexpected...

difficult to read the screenshots but easy to imagine the potential from the text. love it! do lot of work for the pinup, so we can understand how the flat/structure/circulation... work
