My goal this week is to analyze, diagram, & utilize the moire in order to formulate a formal system (of rules) in order to negotiate the design process. Here are some of the questions (with a few answers) I have been asking myself through this process:
What is a moire?
A system of interference that derives from a difference. It is created and developed through the superimposition of repetitive layers (or inputs.)
Where is the moire (within the project)?
Structure layout? Enclosure pattern? Enclosure/wall placement? Furniture layout? Systems layout? Sectional conditions? Tectonics? Stairs? Interior layering (wall layers, etc)? The moire should be the underlying system for design decisions.
How will the moire be visible?
What happens when you breakdown and remove the original inputs and utilize the both~and interference conditions?
How many inputs do you need?
What are the different types of inputs?
Where is the boundary? Where and how does it terminate? How is this determined?
What happens when the layers of the moire are pulled apart/stretched in one or more dimensions? How can this be used as a formal system?
How can the moire extend beyond its visual implications?
What needs to be maintained in order to create the understanding of the moire?
Here are some initial studies I have been developing to answer some of these questions.
