Project 001
After doing the first project with the church of water, I started to do another project which could be more geometrically complex. As a second example, I selected the Florey Building by James Stirling. Simplifying the plan I obtained a rotated square and a series of trapezium that are link between them forming a serpentine form.
My first step was to constraint every point and line through geometry. As a result, I obtained a plan that with any kind of modification only get scale. As in the previous example, I used diagonals, midpoints, perpendicularity, parallelism and relations between dimensions through the use of formula. This time I also created "numbers" as a factor parameters that I could modify to obtain a variety of outputs.
Thus I wanted to explore the geometrical differentiation of the project, I started to eliminate some of the constraint. Also I created new constraints through the drawing of circles and I used numbers (factors) as parameters to made different relations between them. Then, I started with the rotation of the square.

| Rotating the square |
I started to change the radius of the circles and see the outputs.

| Moving circles |
Next I eliminated all the perpendicular constrains and change the positions of the square vertexes.
 |
| Without perpendicular constraint |
I create some parameters and changed them to understand their relations with the design.

Last but not least, I moved all the axis to observed all the different outputs that this single action could give me.
