Eike Schling presents a variety of architectural studies which aim to construct gridshells from repetitive parts. For this purpose, he introduces a theoretical framework that enables a systematic design and an analysis of the repetitive quality of doubly curved grid structures. The key is to consider both geometric as well as constructive criteria to allow for a repetitive fabrication of parts. Eikes studies not only reveal fundamental principles and dependencies within repetitive design, but also show the great potential and aesthetics of such structures. A novel design method - asymptotic networks on minimal surfaces - allows for the construction of strained gridshells from straight lamellas and orthogonal nodes. Construction of a prototypical structure, the Asymptotic Gridshell, was completed in Munich in 2017.
