Conceptual Diagram.

The new urban program (urban stairs) marks the transitional point between the Arrival Concourse and the pick-up zone. Hence, the urban stairs endeavor to introduce Brisbane's outdoor qualities to passengers upon leaving the airport. Similarity to the typical environment that can be found in an urban context (based on the diagram above) where Organized buildings and street represents a controlled space in resemblance to spaces in an Airport. Urban Stairs - An open space allows for program flexibility.

Experiment 03 [Voronoi]

Model 01. Voronoi (Randomized points)

Added two curves each from front and side view + sumsrf to create a surface based on the shape of those two curve. The curve surface is then placed directly above the voronoi base in order for the 'project' definition to work.

Adding thickness/volume to voronoi lines.

Model 2. Serendipity {Using the same voronoi definition + pipe]

Experiment 02 [Sine Curve]

I've thought about fabricating the terminal roof as the main feature of the building; manipulating the users' experience in the space as well as incorporating natural lighting into the building.

From Experiment 01, I decided to further develop the analysis of psychological tension on a surface (Experiment 01 was on a 'line'). A series of sine curves along y-axis generate an evenly distributed undulating surface.

Model 01. First attempt to generate the surface using sine curve and cosine curve alternatively along y-axis to create amplitudes.

Model 02. Definition allowing for sine curve amplitude to be adjusted via 'number slider'.

Model 03. Curvature analysis pattern on Sine-curve surface. From model 2, curvature analysis pattern was inserted to create series of circular holes along the surface. [in thoughts: Allowing natural lighting to penetrate through circular holes.]

[Added 'curvature analysis definition'] The series of circles gradually increase in size as the surface it situated on increase in degree of curve.

However, I was not able to maintained those series of circles as I started extruding the surface. [Need Help!]

Another alternative was to add a boolean definition for the circles to cut through the surface. Unfortunately with this definition, circles generated by the curvature analysis definition [because they overlapped] do not allow for boolean to work. Hence, long story short, I had to split those circles so that it won't overlapped and the surface ended up looking like a swiss cheese!! [still need to work on it].
