CHOSEN THEME

The theme I had chosen for my design is MUSHROOMS.

As I was playing around with geometry in grasshopper, I ended up creating a shape similar to a shape of a mushroom. I then thought this was a great idea, for mushrooms are very organic and curvilinear, and also have a shape of shelter.


As I continue to look at the mushroom form and its patterns, I realised it has a type of waffle like system I would be able to use to process my model for laser cutting.

I like the way that they all hurdle and bunch up together like an umbrella sheltering a person.
It gave me an idea of creating a mushroom type building in the pattern of a waffle representing its repetitive layers.
