Fractal applications in architecture

[TheRedshiftRider]

(Im sorry for posting this in probably the wrong section, I have tried to find out where to but this seems to be the best option.)

Currently Im working on a reasearch project to find out more about the use of fractals in architecture. At this moment Im trying how It is used or can be used. One of the things Ive found is as simple trying to support a roof. Are there any other ways they can be used? Both structure and design applications are ok. Thanks in advance.

I found this amazing link of an idea I had some time ago:

http://fractalfoundation.org/OFC/OFC-12-1.html

I kind of forgot about it but it is very useful. So I will probably have a look at fractal foundation as well.

also the stuttgart airport has a fractal structure:

and for me a lovely example is of course the eiffel tower. just look at it..

I've heard about the project in Amsterdam. The Stuttgart airport looks great. I'll need to have a look at the eiffel tower. Thanks

I finished the paper. My schoolmates and teachers are having fun readig it. Apparently...

You can have a look at it here. It is in Dutch though:

Unfortunately Brasnacte hasnt been able to finish the interview. He hasnt replied yet. But I might be able to cover his interview during the verbal exams.
Thanks to Ckleinhuis and Chillheimer and everyone else who helped me.

There are some errors but this Isnt the final version.

Now I will need to wait a few months, do my oral exams which includes presenting the paper and after that I will know if I did it right.

I had to do the presentation today. It went really well.


It could be rated bad, average or good.

My paper and presentation got a good rating from the examiners.


Thanks to everyone who got involved in this.

[cKleinhuis]

great to hear, where is your presentation for us to view as well?

[TheRedshiftRider]

Thank you.

The presentation itself is not on video so I can't show it that way. I do have a powerpoint document with some pictures and reminders:

That might be interesting to have a look at. If there is anything that needs translation or further explanation please let me know.
