Parametric Wall

The parametric wall is the result of a design strategy I’m trying to develop; “surface versus component“

“surface versus component” is a design strategy that is based on the relationship between a free formed surface and a designed component. The strategy is to breakdown the surface into a series of components or to build up the surface from a series of components, and the whole is always more than the sum of the parts. The components is all of same nature, but they aim at continually variety.

The wall is generated using GC (GenerativeComponents) and rendered with mental ray. I have made a physical model of the same wall (surface), but with a different component. I will post some pictures and the theory behind on blog later.
