INSTALLATION

CODA Studio is famous of building light structure installations with the most up-to-date computerized technology and of using the newest scientific innovations in architecture. They used wood stave to build a toroid, doughnut-shaped structure with low-tech manufacturing process, highlighting the flexibility of wood. ​


PROPOSAL

Big O project aims to build a toroid out of timber planks. Beyond the aesthetic qualities and the space continuity, toroids embbed the challenge of building a combination of synclastic and anticlastic double curvature, which in last terms, is a very self-stiffening and efficient shape. Hopefully, we realized of a win-win coincindence: Timber planks can be easily built when following geodesic curves, and geodesic curves on toroids are periodic. This suggests the nice opportunity of building a toroid out of flat and very long connected planks that would self-interlock into a doubly-curved gridshell.
