Low-Resolution Concert Hall
Complex Surface
High Resolution Panelization
Medium Resolution
Low Resolution
This project looks at methods of panelizing complex surfaces. Each panel is planar - meaning each member can be easily manufactured and constructed using typical sheet materials. Using mathematical forms, which are then panelized using two different methods, we designed an open-air concert hall. This project is a more speculative exploration utilizing similar research and techniques to Cloud09.
Group project, Spring 2024.

Secant Plane Method of Panelization
1.) Extract Wireframe from original curved surface.
2.) Set XYZ Plane to points A, B, & C.
3.) Draw a Rectangle from Points A, B, C. This creates a point Secant to Point D - allowing for a Planar Surface to be created.
4.) Draw a Surface from Points A, B, C, E.
5.) Draw a Surface from Points B, D, E.
6.) Draw a Surface from Points C, D, E.
7.) Repeat Steps 2-6 for each panel.
