架构师提供的文本描述。影子馆探索了穿孔结构的悖论，在这种结构中，材料的去除使结构变得更轻和更弱。影亭是为密西根大学马塔伊植物园的一个遗址而设计的，它既是一个结构，也是一个完全由洞构成的空间。展馆表面由100多个不同大小的铝激光切割锥制成。除了测试铝板的极限，锥将起到将光线和声音输送到室内空间的作用，为游客提供一个空间来欣赏周围景观的景致和声音。探讨了锥的组织方案，包括叶形概念背后的逻辑。在植物学中，分类法描述了植物对其元素的螺旋式排列。锥体的组织可以限制形状，但可以加强结构。激光切割过程利用数字化设计信息对铝锥进行精密切割和加工。展馆的表面将保持自然的铝光洁度和光滑的边缘由激光切割机。

Text description provided by the architects. The Shadow Pavilion explores the paradox of a perforated structure where the removal of material makes a structure lighter and weaker. The Shadow Pavilion, designed for a site at the University of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens, is both a structure and a space made entirely of holes. The pavilion surface is made with over 100 aluminum laser cut cones that vary in size. Beyond testing the limits of sheet aluminum, the cones will act to funnel light and sound to the interior space, offering visitors a space to take in the views and sounds of the surrounding landscape. Organizational schemes for the cones are explored, including the logic behind the concept of phyllotaxis. In botany, phyllotaxis describes a plant’s spiral packing arrangement of its elements. The organization of the cones may limit the form, but can strengthen the structure. The laser cutting process uses the digital design information to precision cut and finish the aluminum cones. The pavilion’s surface will maintain the natural aluminum finish and smooth edges resulting from the laser cutter.
