@ RWNB
Yes you're right RWNB! Maybe the professor, Ted Ngai and Cesare Griffa thought that it's not important the instrument, but the concept...(it's only my idea, i don't know the true motivations...... :) ) If u want all the script u can download @ www.tedngai.net
In this site you can understand everything and download the script!
bye!

@ Nick
Thanks Nick!! I'm happy that you like it! This building is in Piazza Solferino, Turin so this second skin is only an educational virtuosity 'cause u can imagine the deep disapprobation of the traditionalist architects in a place so historical like Turin...... XD

From what i've read Matteo sounds like a really interesting workshop. I think you may have one of the easier animal precedents, the polar bear strategies seems fairly straight forward. But none-the-less your group produced the most dyanmic and striking facade.

Thanks! Yes, with gh and vray! It was a parametric workshop in Turin, with the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. If you like this there is also a publication (a pdf for free):
