Dimensional cells receive twisted box variations of minimal surface based modules. Slicing was attempted in both sequences i.e. before and after module translation. Schwartz surfaces were selected for their unique difficulty and capacity to resist polar compression when threaded with tensile connections (chord through shared walls and printed cores.) https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/J1883904128099613948283243720528/draft_1-01.jpg Idealized Outcome: Box morphed Schwartz surfaces from an early iteration of the base mesh, given a steeper sloap and more reciprocally leveled top with the intent of fabricating a model to the scale of a small stool (about 20” tall) https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/U1883907257165470939413355687760/web_spreads_square4.jpg Print Taxonomy https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/H1883907257202364427560774790992/web_spreads_square5.jpg Toolpaths https://cmmcc.com/multi-path-ceramics 2025-04-17T14:37:05+00:00 always 0.5 https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/T856944278602641779290021898844/vertical.svg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/E1883976391522422250670420651856/vase_type_4.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/X1883976391467082018449291997008/vase_type_1.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/A1883976391485528762523001548624/vase_type_2.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/E1883976391577762482891549306704/vase_type_7.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/G1883976391540868994744130203472/vase_type_5.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/L1883976391559315738817839755088/vase_type_6.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/B1883976391503975506596711100240/vase_type_3.jpg https://cmmcc.com/surface-tension 2025-04-17T14:37:05+00:00 always 0.5 https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/T856944278602641779290021898844/vertical.svg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/P1883976902146744955024518934352/THUMBNAIL_IMG_3218.jpg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/X1883976902165191699098228485968/web_spreads_square6.jpg https://cmmcc.com/woven-stone-pavillion 2025-04-17T14:37:05+00:00 always 0.5 https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/R856944258311223298209515121244/horizontal.svg elevation, basic geometry https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/N1883241281060345902227930476368/web_spreads_square10.jpg reciprocal joints as further boolean operations https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/I1883241281023452414080511373136/web_spreads_square8.jpg in situ joining of unitized elements https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Y1883984589458402792005963870032/web_spreads_square7.jpg mesh construction + discrete unitization https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Y1883984589384615815711125663568/plan.jpg plan view, basic geometry https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/D1883984589513743024227092524880/web_spreads_square11.jpg exploring irregular typologies https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/T1884004297941324399217200852816/Combine_Wedges.jpg keystone interlock detail https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/Z1884007611234814454484604809040/right.jpg elevation, basic geometry https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/N1884007611216367710410895257424/Alt-Version.jpg attempted instantiation of original script https://cmmcc.com/wicket-splines 2025-04-17T14:37:05+00:00 always 0.5 https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/R856944258311223298209515121244/horizontal.svg https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/T856944278602641779290021898844/vertical.svg https://cmmcc.com/cv 2025-04-17T14:37:05+00:00 always 0.5 https://cmmcc.com/contact 2025-04-17T14:37:05+00:00 always 0.5 https://cmmcc.com/left-nav-—-desktop 2025-04-17T14:37:04+00:00 always 0.5 https://cmmcc.com/header---mobile 2025-04-17T14:37:04+00:00 always 0.5 https://cmmcc.com/footer 2025-04-17T14:37:04+00:00 always 0.5
