It is quite difficult to come up with a structure that is repeatable, that is able to support it self and also unique. Images above are some of my current ideas, but I will love to alter them a little bit to make them more innovative.

I managed to get through “In the Library of Form” but haven’t finished “The Blind Watchmaker” – these readings are super interesting and helped me further understand the breadth of Parametrics as an idea. Highly recommend reading!

I used this week to better understand how each piece will have to interact with others in order to create a stable structure. Here we see that each module will have to be able to connect to 4 other pieces: top, left, right, bottom. This iteration does NOT fulfill the 25% opacity in one direction and 75% in the other. This sketch was made in rhino, not grasshopper.

Below is my few ideas for the project of privacy wall for children.

I plugged in more different types of input data (it was used to be only 3, now I have 6) to show more variation.

I also did a new gif for the new product family. (the white is because I set the model in Rhino to be transparent if you put a backdrop behind it, it will appear to be okay)

Last but most importantly—The link to Thread:

This light is created using twisted strings to create moments of merging and hollowing on the surface by compression and stretching the from.
