Jenny Wong: Looking Out Week 1

There are skating shelters located in Winnipeg, Canada designed by Patkau Architects. Winnipeg is coldest city out of Siberia. Patkau Architects took their chance to create shelters along river skating trails. These shelters are formed from two layers of thin, flexible plywood only at 3/16th inch thick. These forms are created after experimenting on the stresses of bending. They're resulted from stressing/deforming and then releasing stress. Stress points were relieved by cuts and openings on the structure.
