Perhaps the pillars could be something inspired?
otherwise nice project! (-;

Thank you for the replies Jon.

If would be nice if in near future you could post an additional photo of that light coming from the cavity.

Anyway, great project, I love it!

Yes that's correct.  I had to try and work within the limits of a traditional canopy construction. I was then basically left with the ability to manipulate the form of the ceiling beneath.  Their is an air cavity between, hoping that the structure will be lit from within and filter outward through the slats.

No problem Jon. I still like the shape of your projects. It looks very nice.

By the way, the space between the wood slats and steel beams is empty (made of air) on the middle of the roof? Right? Your cladding (panel system) and steel beams beneath it, is sort of flat, but wood beams and wood sluts are a bit curved, right? So the space between this two is filled with air?

I am not suggesting this is a mistake, and I think I see the reason why you made it that way - you wanted a roof to be curved on the lower part and to be a bit flat the top most one.

I just want your confirmation on this, because I am not sure.

Thank you for the replies.

Hey nice catch!  I think I had been in too deep with this one to realize my mistake--thank you!

It looks very nice Jon !
But on the image where you explained the layers of the construction, you posted wood slats as the last layer (the most lower one), and wood ribs and beams above it.

But in here it is the opposite situation: the most lower layer are wood ribs and beams, and wood slats go above them.

Or did I get it wrong?
