Technical Review Prep

Our Technical Review is on Monday.  I have been preparing for the upcoming critiques.  Here is a working view of a detail section I'm presenting.

Iteration with Stilts

I've updated the Grasshopper script to include branched bamboo stilts which will sit on timber micro-piles.  This version sorts through 600 million iterations.

I'm 3D printing the first 48 iterations of the building form.  This is the Grasshopper code in its current form.

Diagrammatic Site Plan

I've decided to locate a seed community in a tidal zone full of plastic garbage.

Site Studies

I'm determining the best location to begin phasing this building method into the city.  The Westernmost site (left side) seems to have the most usable space for setting up a community.
