With one large move the datum can be taken out of place with only a small, single piece

attached to its surface; dening the purpose of a patch as something used to enhance astructure, not dene it.

Throughout the model is a reiteration of extension through the use of planes and lines

characterized by their points of departure, outward reach, and eventual end.

By repeating physical elements such as horizontal planes, rhythms are established that

also have relationships to other areas in the model; creating accents, disruptions, or ir-

regular patterns.

PROJECT III:WORDS AND DETAIL PHOTOS

Fall 2010, ARCH 141211 x 17

Projecting chipboard and basswood from the regulating lines makes volumetric connec-

tions. Planes and basswood transcend boundaries both physically and visually allowing

previously disconnected moments to relate. The model contains a system that uses

four tiers on either side of the datum. By varying the heights a hierarchy of volumetricshapes is created. Ranging in the bold to the modest spaces and volumes are acces-

sible because they are partially defned implicitly rather than encompassed explicitly

on all sides. Only one volume is contained by four surfaces and even it has small ac-

cented spaces that allow various transcending moments. Turning corners strengthens

moments stereotomically, but it also allows for visual movement by selectively reiterat-

ing a perpendicular turn. These turns help to encompass volume but they also set up a

system that allows for connectivity.

Using autoCAD the geometries were made at random,

however the length of their extension lines relate to the

number of sides. The paths are all variants of the

fibonacci spiral numbers (1,1,2,3,5,8) along a grid

system using a spline tool. The transformtions were

done using the MEASURE command and then

adjusted by hand for scaling and placement to

resemble a simple organism or crustacean.

Lifeforms are complex no matter the scale. Even microscopic organisms such as those that live in theocean have even smaller details that can only be seen upon close examination. When the crystal

crustaceans interact their extension lines create new geometry to be explored. Shapes with four sides

are denoted by green; those with five are red; and shapes with either six or three sides are yellow.
