After careful consideration, we‘ve determined the direction we’ll take from now on in this project. As you already know from our previous post, we were set on having Tensegrity as our main idea. But we decided to expand on this even further. We plan to include elements of the “Chinese Tower” from the English Garden in Munich to associate it with the city we know and love and create a sense of familiarity and security. A signature characteristic of this tower is the iconic Chinese-style roofs which we find especially aesthetically pleasing. By placing it at the top of our tensegrity tower we plan to make it the crown of our tower. We feel like this will greatly elevate our overall design, which you can see in the sketch in the photo below.
