Process - Step 1: Design Your Windows
- Remember! You don't have to come up with the design on your own! Get your family involved! Show off your geometry skills!
- Explore and research geometry in architecture and window design! For inspiration watch this. More links can be found at the bottom of of this page...
- You must use at least 3 of the following geometric shapes in combination to comprise your window(s):
- Regular polygon
- Parallelogram (rhombus, square, rectangle, ...)
- Triangle
- Circle (semi-circle, sector, segment, ...)
- Trapezoid
- Kite
- You may overlap shapes *BUT* make sure if you do that they overlap in a way you can determine area easily.
- Your window(s) must make up at least 30% of the wall but no
more than 80%.
- You do not need to be concerned about structural
issues for this project.
