A few photos as the canopy touches down with the ramp.
Assembly has been completed: (Final photos will be up soon!)
-All panels are in place & tightened with lock nuts (except 1 which needs to be cut & shipped to site).
-The entire construction including folding, rivetting, bolting, installing & tightening took roughly 7 (12 hour) days for with only 1 person.
Tesselion is a project by Skylar Tibbits which proposes a system of flat panel tessellation derived from complex surfaces to
enable ease in constructability and a directly evolved spatial environment through lighting,
programmatic adaptation and structural simplicity. Each panel’s uniqueness is afforded by
the efficiency of digital fabrication while coded parametric relationships allow an emergent structural
efficiency, from a single panel to the complete adaptability of the surface as a whole.
