The following experiments were conducted to effectively create a Parametric roofing model to respond to changes in lighting conditions and wind loads.
the triangulated surface created would allow for slits to open up and allow fresh air and sunlight in, and exhaust air out.
my inexperience with this program made things very difficult, however, i feel this opened up more ideas and opportunities in regards to alternate functions of the roofing structure, and even the structural construction of the roof element itself.
understanding how this (massive) structure could actually work with today's construction limitations is extremely important, and will need to be resolved.
Software used for these modelling experiments: Rhino + Grasshopper plugin
