In our pursuit to design and build a Timber Frame roof for the four columns in Burchard Plaza, I cut scale pieces of the wood and began to play with different layouts. Realizing that the amount of wood we have could not solidly cover the surface of the space, I decided to approach a grid system. To expedite the process, since we only have 2 weeks to design, model, and "posterize" our ideas, I decided to create a scheme then photograph it quickly and then move to another idea. Generating multiple iterations helped me quickly narrow down what I want to make of this project. I'm trying to keep my ideas simple but elegant. I then poured a concrete base for my model and have started working with photoshop to really envision my design of the roof on the columns.
