Assignment 3 TEXT IN FINAL POSTER

BIOLOGY- SPIRAL BIONICS

In this assignment, the main design idea is to develop my model and make it match the design theme in my assignment 2, that is, a bionic spiral structure.

In this design concept,  Bionics architecture design principles are that through the form, structure, function and environment, buildings could mimic the characteristics of a biological species in nature, and those could make the buildings more functional, more beautiful, more energy efficient, more ecological and more sustainable.

Those layered structure is the best way to realize biometric structure. The shape of the model chosen, I also want to realize a spiral tower. These biometric structures are often found in nature, as I summarized in my second assignment essay. For example, the honeycomb structure, the new bionic building completely changed the traditional architectural design and construction characteristics of these times to perform better, more suitable for the use of human habitation, and life in the functional requirements. Here, I hope my design and surrounding environment can be combined in a nature way.

In the model, I have chosen is to create a good foundation in the Rhino after the graphics in the grasshopper flow graph, the adoption attempting is the establishment of a Rec-Grid. This is because the initial consideration is the shape of the basis for bionic architectural structure. After that, give it a Slider to arrange the value of the width and length. Then, set up the Series and Slider respectively to control other values. Secondly, the connections between them, such as the Move and the value of Rotation, all of those are defined the appearance and structure of experimental model initially.

These are preliminary method or experimental expression of the bionic architectural design feature - the double spiral structure. The more detail design and the relationship between them in the future experiments will be presented more clearly. For this building design, I chose to use the combination of appearance and building their own, that is, Bionic function. The functions of this building not only used to fulfill the basic functional features, but also used to content the overall arrangement of space and the functional requirements of structure, all of these required a higher standard when I built it in the CAD space. However, bionic building function do provides any problems to the city traffic system.

For the site chosen, I had chosen to build my model in the site of junction of Pitt Street Mall, Sydney Tower, Castlereagh Street and King Street. I put my 3ds model into the city site and the model will have a feel that compliments the splendor that is Sydney Tower and interacts with pedestrians.

Assignment3 FINAL POSTER

This is my final poster, I do not changed it a lot
.

Assignment3 PHOTOMONTAGE AND SITE SELLECTION

 I had chosen to build my model in the site of junction of Pitt Street Mall, Sydney Tower, Castlereagh Street and King Street. I put my 3ds model into  the city site and the model will have a feel that compliments the splendor that is Sydney Tower and interacts with pedestrians.  This two images will in my Final poster.

Assignment 3 12 ITERATIONS

The Flow graph script is the online tutorial I had learn in my own assignment design. 

 The main pieces in my model is the floors of the building, and its geometry could transform by the slider figure changing. The Floor geometry is in the red circle, and the building surface geometry is circled in blue.

 

Those are my 12 iteration images that  I have made by changing the figure of the sliders which model shape is needed to make my poster.
In those iteration images, I try to test the number of floor and the shape of angular.

The change of the floor geometry with more anglers each way.

Those images shows that the gaps form the two building component geometry.

Those images shows the floor levels and shapes changed in the Z direction

The rendering images showed that the basic geometrical changed  around with floor and the building surfaces.

Assignment 3 DRAFT POSTER

In my draft poster, I want to put the images on one side or put them in two opposite side, this could make people easy to read it. and for the quality of the images, I'll use the best option to render the images.
