Module 4 - Rise or shine
Overview:
For this project, I created a shelter structure that can be modified/adapted by the user. I decided to map one of Monet’s paintings of the “Falaises d’Etretat” -close to my hometown- as shown in figure 1 below.
Figure 1: Falaises d’Etretat - Claude Monet
Results:
The following section shows the results I obtained for this assignment. Figure 2 is the normal image mapped onto my structure. Figures 3 and 4 show both the debossed and embossed surfaces. Finally, figures 5 to 7 show how the panels adapt to the sun's directness.
Figure 2: Normal image mapped onto the surface
Figure 3: Debossed image
Figure 4: Embossed image
Figure 5: Adaptive panels based on sun directness at 7am - low panel density
Figure 6: Adaptive panels based on sun directness at 1:45pm - low panel density
Figure 7: Adaptive panels based on sun directness at 4:30pm - high panel density
Modelling approach:
The following steps describe my modelling approach for this assignment.
