Productive Day

Today, I produced two sections and a plan, meaning that it was an extremely productive day. Tomorrow I will begin studying my buildings skin a bit more heavily. I want to create a form that is a bit more organic, treating the individual panels as cells rather than a thick exoskeleton. I have been researching Melbourne's Rectangular Stadium, which uses tessellated dome structures to cover the outer perimeter of the stadium. The use of a strong steel frame allows each individual panel to have the option of becoming translucent, which has been a problem for my building skins thus far. Hopefully tomorrow something fruitful will come of this.
