Light Diffused Through Material



Another case study in Plummer’s book that was fascinating was the Christus Pavilion designed by Meinhard; one which I did not add to my research paper as I discussed residential orientation and the Pavilion is not; nevertheless it is a marvelous design which I was quite content to learn about.    











As seen from the photographs above different shadows penetrate the interior of the building this is done through the use of different diffusers. The pass structure of each section is double sided and between the glass material is placed to produce the interior visual effect. The materials between the glass differ from natural and industrial materials such as screws, feathers, sand, coal, cables and so on.
