DESIGN DEVELOPMENT - facade system
Set
Choose surface
Divide facade contours. Offset contours and roate/ twist
Loft straight and bent contours to create twisted fins. Straight contours create axis for the twists, located on the edge of the building. Rotations ranging from 0 - 65 degrees.
Glass placed diagonally inbetween fins creating a zig zag pattern - direction of glass determined by the sun

Summer sunpath
Winter sunpath

PAINTED FEATHER FLOWER We took inspiration from Australian native flowers as an acknowledgement of the Wurundjeri people. This image is the framework for the facade and represents growth in the Glenferrie area through the placemaking project
