RECURSIVE GROWTH
The idea of the assignment was to understand how loops work and how you can create a changing system to adapt to an existing architectural space.
The given space was the Mies Van Der Roho pavilion in Barcelona.
Using loops I adapted the pool of the pavilion to have a temporal installation that resembles the movement of fabric.
Pseudo Code:
- Create a curve and use it as a base line for the loop.
- Open a loop.
- Divide the curve and create a vector.
- Use a random number to simulate movement in the object along the vector.
- Join the vectors to create one curve.
- Create a series of repetitions along the Z plane
- Loft the curves.
Iteration #1
Iteration #2
Iteration #3
Iteration #4
Getting to know how the loops work and applying to an object was challenging but I think that once you understand how it works it can be very helpful and a useful tool.
