Folded Architecture

Earlier in the semester, our class studied the neighborhood of hazelwood.

 

By using elements from the study, I constructed a contextual map focused on the relationship between the topography of hazelwood and its’ existing built environment. I achieved this by using the program Grasshopper within CAD software “RHINO”.

 

Using this map, our class was instructed to experiment with folded architecture. The rules allow for mirroring of elements and pivoting of tessellation points.
