CONCLUSION

Our goal during this process was to figure out how to build the

structure based on pure wooden joints.

The structure is possible to build based on our calculations,

but the dimensions and proportions one gets from just using

wooden joints are very big. This also interferes with the idea of

the structure; something light balancing on the edge.

Also, by using pure wooden joints, the structure will not have a

clean frame. Again, this is not a problem, but it will change the

appearance of the structure.

To build this construction, one then has to choose what is most

important: a clean light structure with hidden steel joints, which

is not a pure tectonic construction, or a fully tectonic structure

only built in wood, but with large dimensions and an appearance

based on the woods permissions.

During the projects process we gave wings to our imagination,

returned to our childhood, discovered the universe and learned

the capacities of wooden structures and how to transform an

idea into reality.
