I’m desperately trying to get an idea of how to create a geometry like in Mark Fornes project Marquise. For my university project, I would need a shell that has overlapping openings exactly like in this project but I have no clue how to create them. I’ve worked with Kangaroo in previous project stages but I was never able to manipulate the simulation so it fits my requirements, always ending up with boring domes.
Has anybody a hint for me please? Maybe @laurent_delrieu has already thought about this project from Mark Fornes already?
Thanks a lot for every idea in advance!
do you mean modeling it directly in 3D without inflating it with kangaroo? My end goal is that the shell should be at least nearly a catenary geometry because I’m working with a very weak material (clay), so I think I can’t skip the kangaroo approach…
You are right you surely need something like Kangaroo, you surely need to have a look to Felix Candela work instead of Marc Fornes, it seems more near of what you want (in term of material).
