Water Fall



The idea behind the PLANAR component of this assignment what designed based on the idea of trickling water and a water fall. The idea is that planting medium would grow out of the mesh openings and that when the piece is watered, that water will drip down to the next consecutive planting slot. The pattern is given a natural feel in that it is randomly arranged, but it is still controlled because of how it is designed to drain from one to the next.



The idea behind this piece, for the PERPENDICULAR component of this assignment is to go along with studying the idea of falling water. On this piece there are protruding planes where planting medium can be placed, and a diagonal to direct the flow of water down the wall unit. This is a small study model. To go off this idea, many different vary modular units could be made and arranged into a larger wall which has a controlled flow pattern but can be seen as random and natural.
