The concept of the project is creating space through density.©
A cell or component with a fibrous condition and structural potential was designed and later was optimized following the logic of biological systems (vascular system in plants and humans).
5 gradual variations of the cell were generated; from less to more density, with their respective connecting points.©
To be able to create project of such dimensions, where the main idea was to design the building’s skin from repetitive components that could form a pattern responsive to climatic forces, it was necessary to propose a main structure that could support it.
Having a main structure and an outer skin layer of cells designed by the same logic system facilitates the subdivision of space and creates an interesting layering effect.©
