Maybe it's unfeasible - we'll see... Layers are not 90 degrees to the ground and I'm wondering if I can use other parts of the building (other layers) as counterbalance??
Have yet to add the deformations...
holes cut through the building emphasise slenderness...
This isn't where I intend to position the building on site - I'm looking at scale and proportion here. My proposal is 350cm wide in the above render - possibly pushing the boundaries...
I wonder whether I'm losing some of the austerity of the original Pep. models and its become too angular and less surfacey??
The wind-loading solution of cutting holes through the building also emphasises its slenderness - i.e. without the holes, if you're unable to see the profile of the building and are standing square in front of it then it just looks like a massive block
Vast surfaces, and lots of them.
Corresponding surface deformation create space.
Surface articulation, or, the cutting language, intensifies around these pockets mirroring program.
