Developing the Klupa bench further and discovering design, proved a difficult task as we were limited to the cylindrical shape that the bench would form. This shape was ideal for our water vortices approach however became problematic when designing something to occupy the site.

Because of the size of the site we found that this was a very small scaled approach to cover the entirety of the site (in which we intended to do). As a consequence we looked back at our previous matrix for the Seroussi Pavilion and incorporated the technique of their computational approach using Spin Forces. This resulted in a more successful design to further develop, which not only occupies a larger area but mimics the movement of water flowing through vortices supporting the original concept.

CHOSEN ITERATIONS

Curved Formation; Allows for maximum performance of Water Vortex generation.

Ability for Interaction; Between the site, design and audience.

Interesting Characteristic; The optimal use of Computational Design techniques that results in a complexity of form that is aesthetically intriguing.

Expression of Water; This acts as the concept of the overall design to conjoin the relationship between the technology system and the design.

SELECTION CRITERIA

CHOSEN ITERATIONS

ADDITITONAL TO CRITERIA

As a concept began to form additional requirements for the design increased the criteria for choosing an iteration.

Use of Space; Maximal use of the site allows for more generation systems to be placed creating more energy.

WATER ACCESS WITHIN DESIGN

Water Movement through the pipes/walls, will be initially pumped up. For the initial start of the ‘moving wall’ the pump will need to use outsourced energy however after that initial pump the vortices throughout the maze will be able to power the function of the pump.
