Exploration-2- Folded skin with vertical voids This exploration has looked at replacing the single louvers with a continuous folded timber skin that contains vertical and tall voids (apertures). This approach was aiming to achieve refraction in sunlight without conflicting with the verticality of apertures and the forest-inspired shadow patterns.

Exploration-3- Timber fins, vertical views, and light refraction This exploration has looked at developing and learning from both explorations (1 and 2), by keeping the vertical tall apertures, and the refraction concepts. The folded skin of exploration-2 has been developed into timber fins that take the same folding motion but with a non-continuous way, which leaves timber fins (or partitions) with voids that can be walked through to look out on to nature. This approach provides vertical apertures in a way that views become framed by these fins. Furthermore, refracted shadow patterns will emphasise verticality, as well as lead people towards views. However, timber fins, placed on the outer perimeter, will be acting as part of the structure that provides great outdoor lookout areas where people are encouraged to engage with nature.
