Flexibility and handling ability are important factors about tea house as window, entrance and set of tea-things.
The tea hosue is weaved like bamboo bag. Each joint is slide system, so we can morph surface to loose each bolt on joints.
If we morph top of the surface down, the tea house become more closely.
We enter inside to move boards as opening “Nijiriguchi”.
I didn't test material yet, next I will test bending.
If I can't bend plywood, I will cut a gash as I have shown you my previous work of teahouse.
I would like to see your works soon.
Please comment my idea, I want to discuss with you.
Thank you.
Interesting idea about an adjustable system. I wonder what the cage would respond to - environmental, circulation, or other variables...
ReplyDeleteI think an advantage of using such a system is the variation that can be acheived throughout the envelope.
I found interesting using slide system joint as gives flexibility to the frame and could make easier shape change of the teahouse in various ways.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comments.
ReplyDeleteI also think about that the cage would respond to surroundings.
But it is so sensitive, so I have to change the idea that all bending stress would be cancelled each unit.
I will develop the idea and post on the blog soon.
