T2 domus... the roof

This is the structure for our mian pavilion. The truss, while a late development, is significant to our symbolism of the bird in flight, and of the surrounding trees. I was trying to get a sense of lightness from the structure - like the roof was being tied down, or an upward extension of the frame, rather than being supported by the columns. The fanned pattern that was set up as a result of, or response to, the problem is interesting. It gives order to a structure where no 2 members are the same length, or are placed at the same angle. Unfortunately, the nature of materials used means that the effect of this roof is only really visable from certain angles. The memebers are just too big (wide - as seen from the long elevations) to get the point across.
