The Initial Concept...and where it came from

I was interested in the damping wave from and how i could create interesting building form from a very very simple set of geometric curves.

This idea came from a spiral whose amplitude gets smaller as it moves away from the centre. You then mirror that spiral in all four directions and thus you end up with 4 spirals intersecting on the sides and at the top and bottom- as shown here...


Once all the lines are filled in with a mesh, it gives you another set of interesting curves and it looks as though the skin is streched over the frame, just like in the very first esquisse we did!
