There are more possible iterations of a game of chess than there are atoms in the known universe. This is only the case, because there are certain rules that two players have to abide by while playing against each other. Without these rules it would be senseless to differentiate between moves and it would be impossible to derive the slightest hint of meaning (or beauty) from any constellation of pieces and. Similarly, we as D2RP architects have to acknowledge both the implicit constraints we choose by using certain tools (software, robot), and the explicit constraints given to us by our customer (or professor ;)), to be creative. With our design we tried to stay as honest as possible in regards to the constraints we faced.

Rather than viewing the design of our piece in isolation, it should be seen as a simulacrum of the the pavilion as a whole, in that it reflects all boundary conditions (constraints) we faced throughout the design process.
The inspirations quickly became our first concepts, and from this first inspiration, we created many. The wall is easy to remake and give more and more qualities. Several other fields of material qualities were explored. This resulted finally in the following concepts:.
We used Computational Design in many ways. Analyzing, optimizing and shaping. The following chapter quickly shows some of the used techniques and how they resulted in the shape.
