==Why Tessellations?==
−
The network connections to the outside shows a comprehensive list of what the project depends on, and what values makes the project dependable in this newly constructed ecosystem. The links show how well it fits into the existing or the new ecosystem, not dependant on any other project critically. Rather, the skate-park would add value to the site through revenue, recognition and more site users. The diagram shows an win-win situation with each of the parties with vested interests in the project getting direct gain.

A hard dynamic surface needs to be broken down into smaller components to allow for internal movement. Materials such as wood/metal (a basic requirement for a accessible surface) do not bend easily and need to be tessellated, a process of creating a two-dimensional plane using the repetition of a geometric shape, to reduce the number of varied components and optimize the material usage and structure. References for tessellations are widely available in nature, as well as ancient to contemporary architectural and design projects.

The internal structure is an analogy to evolutionary biology based on response to stimuli. Stimuli tend to initiate the need for a response which goes through a recursive loop to adapt in real-time and respond appropriately. This section will be elaborated in the project phase.

Why Tessellations?

A hard dynamic surface needs to be broken down into smaller components to allow for internal movement. Materials such as wood/metal (a basic requirement for a accessible surface) do not bend easily and need to be tessellated, a process of creating a two-dimensional plane using the repetition of a geometric shape, to reduce the number of varied components and optimize the material usage and structure. References for tessellations are widely available in nature, as well as ancient to contemporary architectural and design projects.

Testing Tessellations

Common ans standard tessellations as well as other curved tessellations were considered as base geometry to be tested. Tessellations compared along same dimensions and are allowed to act as a spring to test the maximum amplitude of oscillations.

The spring oscillation test for tessellations

Selecting and Tessellating

The triangular tessellation was found to be the most suitable for this project and thus selected. To add more interest to the project, not uniform triangular tessellation has been tried. This was achieved efficiently through circle packing algorithms, to optimize the natural shapes and number of triangles that could be fit into a predetermined surface. The surface of-course is the largest possible extents on the chosen site.
