Primary exploration of Curves, Surfaces and Polyline approach

[shambhavijoshi-blog]

Using Curves, Surfaces and Polylines as a base to explore form in three-dimensional space

[shambhavijoshi-blog]

Each iteration derives 1 point cloud on site which generates 6 small surfaces or one large outer surface with several inscribed points

[shambhavijoshi-blog]

use of isovist to achieve the points from where one can get various views of the pavilion and trees, thereby eliminating all other external points

The intermediate stage of optimization

[shambhavijoshi-blog]

Creating a proximity grid cloud to understand the concentration of points. The blank spaces create concentrated point cloud and all other points outside the grid are eliminated

[shambhavijoshi-blog]

limiting points to site boundary and creating points at every intersection

Secondary iterations generated between different species of trees

[shambhavijoshi-blog]

Interconnectivity amongst each tree species individually, and the intersecting points created by it

Types of Trees around the site
