Introduction W1- Vase Design W2- Pavilion

Vase 1 - I Began with a basic design in grasshopper by applying 4 circles and extruding them to diffferent heights then applying the loft command.

Vase 2- For this strategy i used a polygon command with 6 sides (Hexagon)and

inserted a stack effect then applied a divider that created a sequence of the same shape.

Vase 3-

For this strategy I used 2 cirles and connected them wiht the use of a shift list command that created a diagonal connection between the vertically distanced circles.

Vase 4-

For this strategy i used a variation of curves and slider options altering

the radius and height of the vase.

Vase 5-

For the final strategy i used a variety of ploygon shapes ranging from 3 sided to a 7 sided ploygon through the manipulation of the number slider to obtain differetn stacks and radius sizes.

Week 2 Pavilion

This week’s task was to create a 20*20m pavilion in Merri Creek, that responds to changing chracteristics. This was obtained by using Rhino and Grasshopper through the attractor field with the change being of natural causes (e.g. sound). Once the first pavlion was made three material applications were added in grasshoper, by the use of a weaverbird plugin. As a result 3 different finishes were observed as seen below.

Side Task -Data Trees All 3 types

This week’s side task was to make a data tree and explore the possible variations possible through the use of a short list, long list, and cross reference. The diagrams above show a mixture of short, long and cross referenced lists.

Short List

These diagrams show the implimentation of the short list command on the data tree.

Long List

These diagrams show the implimentation of the long list command on the data tree.

Cross Reference

These diagrams show the implimentation of the cross referencecommand on the data tree.
