CONCEPT

Inflation simulation is used as a form finding technique in order to represent
a three-dimensional shape that will be fabricated by fabric, and in which later on
concrete will be casted in to have the final form.
The seams of the fabric are designed in a grasshopper “game” where the “player”
can modify the final shape using lines, polylines and curves, having total control of the final proposal.
During the same game the player controls the overall shape and size of the final construction.
