Envelope Opacity

to 10-Jun-08
Unlike most projects, for which I create detailed 3D representations of the actual building geometry, this study was a diagrammatic layout of a single variable, panel spacing. Using a direct radiation study performed in Ecotect, along with other design constraints given to me by the design team, I scripted the layout of the building's structural piers to achieve a maximum amount of solar shading to the interior of the building without obstructing important views. The result is a series of simple diagrams, showing how weighting different design concerns changes the results of the script. All coding in RhinoScript. Diagrams in Illustrator.
