The Floating Veil

Floating Veil is an experiment on visual basic for application scripting and its relevance in enhancing design probabilities and creating an evolutionary architectural form.The diffusion algorithm and vectors concepts has been utilized to generate a pavilion structure with fixed rectangular boundaries and dynamic surface that its curvature is dependent on designer inputs. different input values creates various alternatives and different geometry.

The generated form is to be created as a woven structural steel frame and can be encapsulated by curved glass. Translucent colored sun shades to be accommodated on the roof providing interior light modulation and interesting colored shadow of the roof pattern on the floor below. Photo voltaic panels are to be fixed to the roof structure, its size and rotation angle varies to maximize sun exposure.

The lightness of the woven structure and the floating roof above gives the impression of a flowing veil which soars overhead.
