Following up on my previous blog post about my concept inspiration Tane Mahuta, I have done some quick sketches to help explain what I am thinking of doing to the existing pillars in the basement bathhouse space. The current pillars are just standard and square in shape. I am wanting to either add or replace them with pillars that have a closer resemblance to a trees. In turn it will be as if the new pillars are holding up the roof which could be interpreted as a tree canopy.

I took think Ideal into Rhino and created some prototypes that I ended up 3D printing.
I am very pleased with how they turned out, much better than I expected. They possess such a fluid and organic shape that will help to soften the space.
