Computational design for Loop.pH
The public art installation, designed by Loop.pH was inspired by the moon calendar and illustrates the changing light of the lunar phases during the month of Ramadan. I supported the team with computational design development and research into the archilace construction technique and standardization of the pre-assembled modules. The structure is based on a truncated dodecahedron and built in glass fiber reinforced plastic rods and carbon fiber rods for added strength locally.
