This week I chose to model the Burj Dubai instead of continuing to work the the Toledo Glass Museum. I felt like this was a better choice for this assignment because the Glass Museum does not have much sectional variation. I first drew the plan, and then created three other sketches which contained the splines for the different towers.
Variation 1

In the first variation, I set up a series of relationships between the heights of the towers. Each tower's height is set to a formula which makes it equal to the height of the tower behind it, but divided by a factor parameter.
Variation 2

With this variation, I kept the parameters from the previous iteration, but adjusted the height of the tallest tower, instead of just changing the factor parameter.
Variation 3
In this variation I set the height of the towers to be inversely proportional to the width of each tower's base.
Variation 4

Here I set up relationships between the height of the towers on the left and the height of the towers on the right. The height of each of the towers on the left is equal to the height of its corresponding tower on the right side, but divided by a factor. Variation can be created by changing the factor, or by manually changing the heights of the towers on the right.
Variation 5

In this final variation, I kept the same parameters as variation 4, but edited the formula for the heights of the towers so that the towers on the left are inversely proportional to the height of the towers on the right.
