Initial sketches performed to predict surface response to user proximity. Magnetic properties were introduced to account for people at ground level and birds at higher elevations.
As the attractor point gets closer, the polylines are repelled further away. Multiple attractor points create a pseudo-emergent pattern from the combined magnetic forces.
The surface was then mapped to a sphere using projection. Polylines were thickened to create moveable and maleable louvres.
The resulting sphere was cut in half to create an pavilion emerging from the ground.
An overlay diagram explains how the proximity of the attractor point affects the polylines in its field.
