Skills:

The motivation of design is to built is the seeking of variations and beauty in the process of understand more the module. The digital technology combined in the process make the design more accurate and provide more possibilities. The design skills I learnt is the deeper understanding of Rhino and Grasshopper help me more accurately justify my design and keep boosted up. Grasshopper is convient in prvidding the code that could be reused and make design more precsie. Besides, the digital fabrication make me more familier with the equipment of 3D print and laser cut, and improve the abillities of model making and understand the design itself more. The unreal engine and VR set make closer the gap between the building itself and our perception of design. We could really understand the detail part of the building and bring lost of fun. The asipration as a designer, we have to consider more about the peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feeling when make a design, we shall consider the experience people would encounter and the circulation that people may travel in the space. In the modules 3, I made lost of the seating space for the functionality of pavillion and how people could travel inside by providing mores seating areas. How could these be improve is that the diagram drawing need to be imoproved and skill of Rhino and Grasshopper shall improved by understand how it works to improve the skills.

Diagramming Design Precedent

The key concept of the parvillion is abou the culture of Chicago, it built for celebrating the bold plans and big dreams of Daniel Burnham;s visionary plan of Chicago, it also for welcoming the future with inovative ideas and technologies, thus the laser projection is provided inside the parvillion. Besides, the shape of this pavillion is based on the overall chicago cities for t he celebration of the development of Chicago city.

Surface and Waffle

the structure of the waffle is made with two surface, one of it is flat and one of it is cliffy. the combination made the waffle point in one side. The edges of two surface is relatively pararell, and the difference is about the distance of them, it create

the angle of the waffle . it shows the transition of height of the 3d panel and it reflect most of volumn of this model.this model used two 3D paneling, one of them is used the triangular panel, it show the variation in size from the bottom to top. the another is hollow-structured panel, the light would through the opening.

A hollow waffle structure allows for the creation of an interior volume.

Perforations on one face control the direction in which light can enter the volume.

Solid panels create a definitive boundary between exterior and interior. Protruding forms create interest through light and shadow.

Panels are smaller at the bottom and increase in size towards the top of the volume.

Design Matrix 1:5

SOLID AND VOID

With the booleaned geometry contained mostly within the original shape the cube is still highly visible as a form.

Intersections that do not interact with the surface envelope create heavier darker spaces. Points at which geometry almost touches but does not creates a feeling of uncanny heaviness to the above structure.

Where the intersecting geometry interacts with the surface envelope creates a lighter more open space.

The solids left behind can also be interpreted as space. If we invert the positive and negative space it creates a stretched/pinched network of spaces.

Axonometric 1:1 0

The idea of the 3 D model is inspired by the natural cave, people could see through the sky outside through the particular shape of opening in the space, it is like the â&#x20AC;&#x153;eyesâ&#x20AC;&#x153;. Noofobjects sho In addition, the design also combined with the concept geomerty to increase the complexity and with the pleasure of digital fabrication today.

The concept of the pavillion is palying with the stairs with various level and shape, it would be able to provide the enough seating space for many people due to fact that people area expected to take seat in anywhere of the stairs. the levle of stairs is changed and people could experience differenrt view inside. Besides, the landscape is considered into the variation of levels, people area expected to seat outside the space as well

The roof make the pavillion unifor, but it occipied too much interior space

2d panel make the roof looks soft with exposing more interior space, but it seems very weak for proper shelter

The roof is very clean and imple idea, but it show less variation
