« Reimagine an urban street scene transformed into a biodesigned environment, where buildings are constructed from natural materials like wood, bamboo, and living plants. Incorporate sun-protecting structures, such as green roofs with solar panels, large plant-based canopy shades, and walls covered in vegetation. Add small vertical wind turbines seamlessly integrated into the street’s infrastructure. The streets are lively with many people riding bikes, adding to the eco-friendly atmosphere. The overall design should feel like an organic fusion of nature and technology, with flowing, sustainable architecture, soft natural lighting, and a serene, vibrant urban setting where sustainability and nature-driven design thrive. »
The Glass Pavilion designed by Bruno Taut! It was a stunning prismatic glass dome structure built for the 1914 CologneDeutscher Werkbund Exhibition. This pavilion showcased innovative construction materials and techniques, while also highlighting how glass could be utilized to evoke emotions and construct a spiritual utopia.
The Glass Pavilion had a complex geometric structure composed of a faceted dome formed by numerous flat quadrangular glass panes. The glass panes were fixed into an iron framework that featured a steel compression ring at the base to create a stable and secure foundation.

Understanding the geometric construction of such shapes necessitates a comprehensive grasp of the underlying structure, beyond the optical illusion it presents. It is crucial to recognize that the entire design originates from a preliminary shape. Subsequently, through translation and rotation, the upper panes are derived. Factors such as the shape, size, and heights are determined by various parameters, including the number of sides and the height of the initial triangles. This complexity and the multitude of possible outcomes make a parametric model highly suitable for exploring the various design options. Continue la lecture →
