Our experiment investigate how minimal surfaces converging at a centralized point could create building envelopes that balance aesthetics and functionality, thereby fostering an inviting and dynamic environment. Our physical model consists of a cubic frame, rectangular athletic fabric, a movable dowel with three positions, and pins for securing the fabric to the dowel, resulting in a tensile model.
