C.01 DESIGN CONCEPT
In reflection of the technique proposal presentation we were faced with several development requirements. A greater understanding of the wind presence at the site was required to adapt the form and establish a more resolved design proposal. Through wind studies and investigation a more resolved orientation and configuration can be achieved. The height of the form and the variation within it must be reevaluated in order to maximise the wind collection and in order to optimize views both from the site and to the site. In order to ensure the land art form poses a dominant presence amongst the landscape, from across the harbour, a combination of scale and form must be employed.
experiential quality within the spaces that we create the configuration and structure of the paneling system must be developed within our definition. The experience that the panels create needs to be resolved, we must determine whether individuals move amongst them, through them, under them or observe them from afar. Further definition of the functions in which we desire to be ascribed to each rib form is required. Our initial desire was to integrate energy generation, observation experiences, shelter and experiential spaces. In order to realize these intentions we must develop upon our definition.

C.01 DESIGN CONCEPT WIND ROSE EXPLORATION
Through an investigation of relevant documentation we have derived a Wind Rose diagram which reveals the potential wind directionality and force present at the Refshaleøen site as determined by the Varløse wind turbine farm. Through further investigation we have determined that the presence of factories to the North and North-East of the reclaimed piece of land will have an influence on the projected Wind Rose diagram; our expectation is that the West to SouthWest wind presence will be minimized..
The expected affected areas have been represented in red in the wind rose diagram to the left. Through an understanding of this diagrammatic representation of wind presence at the site it is possible to apply this information to the orientation and configuration of the land art form. In this way the design proposal will be founded upon resolved quantifiable research and therefore maximise our potential energy generation

In order to attain a structure whereby our ribs can be constructed and panels can be dispersed we must apply a system to our derived form. It is our intention to apply a structure which is derived from biomimicry for structural and aesthetic purposes. Through this techniques a resolved tectonic
