The main site that has been chosen for this assessment is site number 2 the Corner of Castlereagh Street and King Street and the main core of this assessment will be based on performance architecture, this in relation to the sources presented in my previous assessment with examples placed within my blog, such architecture can be interacted with a curved linear surface to a topology type environment, an example to this is an image in my blog, the Nanyang University as this best image in which it presents the combination of performance architecture and the blend with the environment. Another image that creates the blend with the environment is the image source, the Wave Building by Lenning Architects, these main images are created by two simple shapes that relate to simple geometry example, the combination of two curves, or the wave design that includes the frequency, these simple type geometries relate to the maths in topology and create a design that makes it different or stand out, with the help of architectural elaboration. The design proposed is a Restaurant/Cafe + Hotel this design in relation to my proposal is “The Bank”, casino as presented on the movie Oceans 13, for in relation to the site that i have chosen, the buildings that surrounds my design will be more into the city area. As for performance the building will be towering over minor buildings, the use of environmental systems will be used in designing this tower for the public and the private spaces to the clients.
The main aspect that will be troubling within this assessment in how to design a certain shape in relation to surface and to blend within the topology of the chosen site. To create a curved shaped facade and define that as the building, and also to create a certain shape and embed that shape onto the facade to create an aesthetically environmental design in relation to the performance in relation to the environment.
Some other problems in encountering this assessment is the type of design, to create a new design, to create a design based on another, or to create something from scratch. Then finding out ways in trying to design the selected items within grasshopper.
There are several simple shapes that can be combined to create a form of architecture within grasshopper, with the use of either assigning a curve to an input, assigning a line to an input or to create those items from scratch, creating from scratch will be the main aim in producing this task with no use of Rhino and just the use of grasshopper, some elements could be created in Rhino to support my design.
Now with the intention and the technical approach to the experimentation in relation to grasshopper, is to find out and understand how it works and also how to create it, in approaching this topic the experimentation is to be researched in further information in designing the wave shape.
I’ve decided to relate this assessment to my first one and keep the topic of waves in a certain consistency, to going in more depth of understanding the concept, designing the concept in relation to the chosen site, as to how it will be situated. As said before the design will be supporting a wave shape as like presented in one of my images posted on my blog, supporting that image will be like a waffle like facade, this more in description it will be a casino, with a wire frame structure supporting, it will consist of 3 towers all joined together, all three different heights from tallest to smallest, the three towers will have the same script that can be edited from the frequency to the height, the design will be a simple curve shape and from the bottom up the towers get thinner in shape.
Images are in relation to the design that will be proposed, such images as the Lenning building, the wave structure and the Nanyang University, both have the same concept but with these designs I imagined in where I made the buildings horizontal to keep that wave and make it taller, this is will be further done and researched in the next proposal.
