More Revit Process for the Freemason Project

Mass testings to bring the form to a usable 3 dimensional form
Second try at the form ... the wavy form is too organic for a building

the form had a exterior part but forgot to record it, this was a addition of  the atrium to the south by removing the second peel
added the second peel but also re-worked on the form from start to get a slightly smoother shell

Freemason Lodge Project


 Here are some of my development pics...

the Freemasons reminded me of a shell that is like a stone supporting yet creating movements that are collecting and creating a huge motion...

First try at bringing the shell and its powerful arms in motion

tried to put the core in a square form to fit the city site

one arm, shell texture added but still something missing

a shell with 2 sets of arms but the form is too ... symmetrical

tried to change the color but still it felt like a symbolic shiva linga than a shell whose arms are creating motion on its behalf

didnt work

I thought this one worked a bit

one on right seemed like a good choice as it had a good form and better central sphere as well as stronger arms

final try at a cylinder as a core and form of the all seeing EYE

textured form of the previous one.. looked better but...
