Building off the gridded system of placing the domes to have shared edges in the first assignment, this
project looked to reinterpret this method with a tension fabric. Using a similar base grid, different,
preset edge conditions could be placed between the supports to manipulate the shape of the tension
fabric. Pairing these iterations together and coordinated alike edges could create a structure similar to a
MAT building.
