The functional dependency between properties and structure in the natural world provides the starting point for the discussion in what concerns the integration of the man-made construction into the existing ecology. The workshop focuses on the production of a cellular structure made of a series of repeated structural units, and identical andifferentiated.
In order to assign specific green properties on the construction, it manipulates the structural unit in terms of differentiation according to the change of the unit’s properties.
The idea comes from the arabic textiles. The unit differentiation depends on pattern of the textile. The way the light comes into the interior of the shell is thus controlled in such a way that the outcome will satisfy the variable needs.

According to the sun position the structure can be adjusted.
