Environmental Transitions


Some experimental models done for Uni. We're investigating environmental transitions of one part of our building. Here, I am exploring the facade of a wall. A skin. I'm interested in a wall that 'breathes', whereby the interiors are directly felt by the outside. If there's a cool breeze that would be felt, light  seeping through the slats, and the undulating volumes creating depth and intimacy. 

As can be seen, geometry and patterns is something I hope to investigate over the next three weeks. I'm reading this book 'Solar Control and Shading Devices' by Olgyay. It's old but it's quite interesting. 

(This was probably one of my fastest done posts! I actually could gather my thoughts well this time.)

Ciao for now
