The approach of my cinematek project was based on a curved surface that resembles a ribbon.
Below is a diagram for the massing of the building:
In order to resemble the exterior of the building, I chose to shape my acoustic tile in the shape of a ribbon. It varies in width and thus would allow opposing pieces to fit in with each other.
Here I ran the what command and show edge command to test if the tile is qualified for 3D printing.
The curves surface allows acoustic reflection in ways shown by the two following images:
1. single tile
2. group of tiles closely bounded and facing each others
I choose to use wood as a material that allows the curved surfaces of the tile to be easily fabricated, also wood is used commonly in theaters to enhance the acoustic effect due to its materiality. Also, as shown above the bottom of the ribbon comes into close contact with the surface it sits on, and wood can be conveniently attached to the ceiling by a bolting system.
The tile can also be made in transparent form (if manufacture allows, in glass) to decorate the building's facade.
