Repetition, variation, and a timber canopy

Original axonometric drawing of a curved timber canopy

A surface assembled from small, repeated elements. This form study explores the visual relationship between a light timber canopy, its slender supports, and the ground beneath it.

A field of small differences

One element, repeated with a gradual change in height, describes a continuous surface. The drawings move from an overall form to the relationship between parts.

Between surface and space

An uninterrupted image changes the pace of reading. The same system can move from a narrow text column to the full width of the viewport.

An assembly of possibilities

Related forms are gathered as a visual sequence, moving between individual connections and the larger structural field.
