In Changsha, China, and supported by the University School of the Hunani architecture, the ‘digital laboratory of architecture’ (DAL) was designed as an intensive workshop, led by invited design and professionals of architecture, to set students in computational attitude of managed methods of falsification. The program was organized around the concept of ‘combined porosity’, research dynamically changing density and intersection lines between skeletons and solid particles.Invited mentors for ‘combined porosity’ are Suryansh Chandra Zahi Hadida Archchets and Shuodzhayong Zang UN studio,
which were asked to offer a design scheme leveled to the topic of the workshop, and this could provide a shade and fit in a volume of 3 x 3 x 6 meters. Students in the program divided the same resume, and created their own prototypes of design in 1: 1 scale in addition to help in the construction of ‘canopy Dal’.The canopy fund is a 40×40-mm steel structure of the L-section, which is anchored on the wall, to which the mesh of the plywood reduced by the laser is provided. Steel cable loop attached to this grid, and customs joints are used to attach individual wooden hexagonal groups (also reduced by a laser) to a loop, where they can be adapted manually and gravity in their desired position.The design of the canopy itself involved manipulation and processing in modeling programs. Using an orthogonal grid, the main L-form of the structure that could provide a shade was curved to build on a bench in order to be fixed and then changed to offer an organic-like form. This original surface grid is then used to produce a hexagonal set of groups, each diverse in the form as defined by a computer model, and each limited in three of their points, but open in three others, allowing the creation of an opening and curves. The largest groups are inserted with triangular holes to maintain the continuity of a wooden loop.
