Proposal
A greenhouse structure that allows control of the amount of light entering the inner space, this can be accomplished by creating shutters that open and shut upon demand in addition to an internal mesh that filters light.
Changing Parameters
sunray strength
The shutters structure will work in accordance to sunlight in real time,
meaning that they are functioning and in continuous motion at all hours of the day.
amount of sunlight
The second element that affects us is the amount of incoming light, and how much the vegetation needs for growth.
sun direction
Closed or semi-closed main apertures on the side of the position and direction of the sun,
At the same time the apertures on the opposite side where the sun is not direct or shinning, the apertures are open.
In addition to the effect of the weather temperature, which is controlled by another layer in the openings,
This layer is responsible for filtering the light and its intensity - a type of filter mesh.
The greenhouse consists of geometric shapes of hexagons which are divided into triangles.
These triangles will be used for frames and shutters that open and close as needed.
Code Structure
Fabriaction
The aperture consists of panels made of steel and hold the wings of the apertures made of tin, under the aperture there is a net that reduces the intensity of the sun entering the greenhouse.
