Personal Project, Málaga: Spider Structure

Hi campers!

I’ve decided to make a more formal project than I had thought. But it’s very functional.

Noting the spider’s structure (main body where eight legs  show up from, and these have many joints), I want to make a structure based on it. A light structure as an ephemeral pavilion. Changing its scale can solve other needs: refuge, tent, storage, garden furniture…

The proponed scheme is very variable due to the geometric parameter of their elements; number of legs, number of joints, lenghts…  In addiction, it has a great ability of mutation due to its ability to fold. Starting from an initial state, all elements are folded in a very short space. This can open up and take many forms. This can be managed very easily if I paramaterize their components.

I hope your advice: Is it a good idea to develop? Can you say me where I have to take special care?

Thank you Cesar! I'm really proud of my simple and little project.

Also, I must thank you because you show me a new way to create a image. Rendering by parts! This gives a lot of freedom in the postproduction.
