A Rapidly-Deployable Shade Structure

A Rapidly-Deployable Shade Structure

An application for Rhino/ grasshopper/generative components /design script?

Something (anything)instead of more blobitecture...

Seems to me it could be resolvable as a formula / explicit coding of constraints which is always the arcane part of parametric architecture.

Let's hope the competition attracts the explicit designer...

Nanjing Sifang Art Museum OpenBuildings

Check out this building. If we were still doing the Digital Craft Museum modelling - I'd want to add this insane building to the list - just so we could explore the interior.

Personally, having visited the Kiasma building, I am prepared to give this folly the benefit of the doubt. Kiasma was uplifting and exciting - as well as a trick to model.
