Marina Bay Sands Modification

This weeks assignment was driven by the Marina Bay Sands project in Singapore. Specifically, the three towers (see attached picture) are shown in three different states, with the two slabs that make up the structure of each tower opening and closing together. The each part in the paramod model can open or close depending on the thickness value. Height is controlled by a function much like the tutorial, though in this particular project their are two vertical points of reference, one for each row of twin slabs orientate in a different direction opposite one another. The grid these shapes are based on can be adjusted, though the program was getting bogged down during 'filming' and would freeze up if any attempt was made to change reference points. Practically speaking (sort of), this model could act as a bridge which closes down to restrict traffic, or as a single development with each section in a different state of motion much like the Sands project.
