Based on the linearly-growing variation model produced in the second assignment, we develop a no-glue structural model to investigate how interior skeleton structure and exterior facade can create a bird observatory tower structure. Taking the oblique supporting wooden structure from last assignment, we establish a core system of each oblique wooden columns supporting and connecting 3 platforms at a time, 4 columns across each platform. Besides the structural elements for connecting and supporting the five platforms, we incorporate strings to exert tensile elements between each floor levels, further stabilizing the core structure and defining boundary of the semi-closed interior with the exterior.
