THESHMOOGreenTechnology

Spring2009Boulder,Colorado

This vase was constructed from simple, brightly colored sheets of construction paper that I found. I chose this

material for the challenge it presented: the obvious reference it gives to children’s art projects, and the

fact that the paper is not very structural due to the low quality fibers used to manufacture

it. I decided to give the paper a new chance at life by showing its most

powerful characteristic: its vibrant color. I gently tore the paper into

strips, then organized the strips into rhythmic bands of color. The bands

were glued together with non-toxic glue into an organic curved

shape. The bands were glued more closely together on one side to

create a curve and counter curve...

Thus my lovely, playful, happy Shmoo vase.

PANEL CONFIGURATION

Clear glass on bottom section of tower to let in maximum light.

A few photovoltaic panels are added to the glazing systems on the North, East, and West facades.

The photovoltaic panels become more dense as they go up the building, providing more shading and more surface area for solar collection.

Dense array of photovoltaic panels at the highest point of the tower, where maximum sunlight occurs.

GLAZING SYSTEM : A system of four different components that respond to sunlight and the tower’s need for variation within the system.

WIND SCREEN SYSTEM : A system of three different densities of an array of 1’x1’ aluminum mesh panels that are animated by wind.

These aluminum mesh panels swayindependently when affected by windforces, making the unseen visible. Panels are added into the system as they go up, providing more sun protection where it is necessary.
