Geodesic Sphere
|
This is a combination of two different group projects. The design of the sphere itself went against the typical geodesic sphere design that usually consists of triangular shapes, which was our intent. We got our original inspiration from a soccer ball. Once constructed, we then had to create a facade for the sphere that created interesting shadows both with light from the outside and inside. The design was a combination of opaque metal plates and translucent acrylic plates, both with perforations to allow for interesting shadows when photographed. Finally, we created a construction document set detailing our design.
