SLIDING FACADE COMPONENT

third attempt at refining and printing the sliding component. possibly would need to be fabricated at a larger scale to get it to completely function. only shows two of the four vertical cables/rods in addition to this there would be two fixed rods to which the fixed (bottom) component would be attached.

SCALE THREE [2]: DESIGN FORM OF ELEVATOR CAGES

SCALE FOUR: SLIDING COMPONENTS. [2]

The three components have been developed so as to include a series of lips and recessions that meant that when the top piece is pulled it pulls the piece below it and the fixed bottom piece limits how far the upper two can travel.

SCALE THREE: RHINO MODELLING. [2]

using the existing wireframe pattern from the jewellery box to plan interior space of a retail fit-out.
a series of interlocking panels constructed from frosted glass or acrylic plastic will provide an undulating surface into which the bottom half of the previously designed jewellery box will slot. this will be mirrored on the ceiling with the lids of the jewellery box thus leaving a ribbon of space between the two which would be glazed in a single pane of transparent glass. Occupation would be within the central void with access being gained between the 'purple' and 'red' layers in the above images.This is form i can imagine could function as a temporary/travelling display space that could be installed both inside or outside and when lit would then influence the appearance of surrounding buildings with rays of light and shadow being cast.  

details to be designed:
1. how the vertical panes interlock.
2. how the boxes slot into the vertical panels so as to create a single undulating surface.
