Overview
In this assignment, you’ll use the surface of the structure that you created for your Module 3 assignment and enhance it in two ways:
- Mapping color values from an image onto the surface to change the properties of the surface panels. We’ll explore changing the color as well as changing the thickness of the panel elements to create an embossed or debossed effect.
- Computing the directness of the surface panels to the sun’s position and changing their properties based on these values.

- Please create a folder named “Module 4” within your personal folder in our Autodesk Construction Cloud project.
- Then, upload these items to your Module 4 folder using the web interface:
- Your Revit project (.RVT) file
- For 2 or 3 units: Your Dynamo graph (.DYN) file for Part 1
- For 4 units: Your Dynamo graph file for Part 2
- Create a link to your Module 4 folder:
- Right-click on the Module 4 folder in the file tree (at the left side of the interface) and choose Share from the pull-down menu.
- Choose Share with Project Members, then switch to the Link tab.

- Create a new posting on this Notion page — Design Journal Entry: Rise or Shine — including:
- Images/screenshots showing your surface with the effects applied:
- For 2 units: a first image showing your image mapped to the surface
- For 3 units: a second image showing your embossed or debossed surface
- For 4 units: a third image showing your panels adapting to sun directness
- A brief description of your design outlining the parameters that can be used to flex and dynamically change your structure
