ABSTRACT

Boolean operations are fundamentally based on the same concept: two shapes overlap each other in space such that there is a zone of intersection. Within this operation, each shape can be used to carve out of the other. Additionally, contemporary architects have used Boolean operations as a means to carve volumes of space. Some architects have used methods to intersect large volumes of space, as a means to create complex sectional relationships and voids within their buildings. Shapes Carving Shapesis a methodology that has been used and interpreted in a variety of ways. The term wireframe is often used in software to refer to a shape which is defined by the traces of its outer boundary edges. The shapes could be multiples of the same shape or a series of unique shapes. After finding an intriguing composition of intersecting elements, use additional dowels to support the floating shapes.
