I'm interested in light and shadow. I'm also interested in cheap and vernacular materials, and using them in ways that exploit the way they deal with light and shadow. Materials such as ply wood, hebel, craft materials such as beading...
Dealing with light and shadow also means dealing with thermal loads as well.
And perforations also suggest issues of privacy and publicity - I liked that little model you showed of the deep window type thing that some students made.
So yeah, I guess how some different materials deal with light and shadow and what potentials they have.
Here is a sunchart for Melbourne if anyone is interested...
