Assignment 2 Proposal

Nature and Nonlinear Systems Biology and Design intersect ideas through aspects of design and geometry, in which natural forms generally consists of nonlinear geometries, and nonlinear systems biology and design also explores forms of nonlinear geometries. The two themes of studies also intersect ideas in terms of design as systems biology explores the concept of cell biology in which contains numerous forms of nonlinear geometries. In comparison to nature, which includes the forms created from plants and animals, too have forms incorporating cell structures and cell biology, yet again containing numerous forms of non linear geometries. These forms relate back to the proposed site in Circular Quay, Bennelong apartments by Andrew Anderson and PTW architects, which is located along the harbour side, in which takes form of nonlinear geometries. The two themes of studies also intersect ideas in my concept with experimental modelling based on the proposed site, as I plan to model a nonlinear cell-like building which is surrounded by nature itself. The cell-form intersects both ideas explored in nature and nonlinear systems, as a cell is nature under a microscope and is formed through numerous nonlinear geometries. I also believe that the forms present in nature, are similar to the forms present in nonlinear systems biology and design, as nonlinear systems biology and design emphasizes the forms of curvatures, as linear mathematically means points which exists on the same line, hence creating a straight line, whereas nonlinear is when points do not exist on the same path of line, creating curves.
