The parametric organisation is constructed through duplication of opposing circles with diversity in radii and position, which creates different pocket sizes within the same base distance - pocket length. Applied and multiplied with a dislocation of half a pocket unit provides the gap described in the conceptual diagramme for sustainable strategies in both linear and curvilinear solutions. The radii constructed from the circle expands also the surface area of the facade, compared to a flat design, which enables a larger area of energy capturing surface if solar cells are implemented. This is a concept used in plant life through among others the water lily (ref.)
