VARIATIONS.PERFORMANCE
VARIATIONS. Style as a definition of performance
Variations has the ambition of staying open around the clock, its main goal is to the ensure behavioural performance, adaptiveness and interaction with its users.
Fish are an expression of excellent performance through integration flexibility and ability to adapt. They are almost one with their environment.
Seeing fish as a styling evolution has performnace implications. The project is coneived as a variation of rib elements. This system can be fesable only by allowing a degree of deformation and mobement in the fiberglass structural elements. The elasticity of this structure is ensured by points of mobility built into the structure. The obvious places for these points are the Dorsal and Pelvic connections of the main tense cable (preventing the rib from flattening) with the fiberglass structure. Incorporating a spring element into the detail of these joints accounts for implicit deformations necessary for keeping the assemblage structure-skin together.
Consequently, interior elements and partitions, which seemingly connected to the structure, are just floating in the interior space (elements: interior fold which supports the upper floor, stairs) or loosely attached to the ribs by means of flexible joints(elements: tensile ETFE foils).
Variations is a hybrid architectural species.
