Material Literacy: Digital Fabrication in Architecture by Fernando Pizzani

Page 9

Material: Tessellations

For this assignment I am focusing to explore the random patterns instead of a lattice style repetitive pattern as in the previos stage.

Solid wall option | Front elevation Fig 2 - Tesselated Pavement: Caloundra coastal wonders

Fig 3- Federation Square: Lab Architecture Studio

Like the images above, the rhythm of the “lines” on this tessellated pavement formation offers an exciting visual and haptic experience. This pattern transferred into an architectural environment can provide the same experience of wonder as the original made by nature.
