Study on a Formative Method; Applying Snowfall to Make Outdoor Environment Richer and Healthier

snow-accumulation formation, natural & artificial, outdoor environments

Our research looks into the application and formation of molding techniques to actively create a rich artificial environment in a fusion of nature and technology through the moldability of nature (snow). In 2011, using data gleaned from wind tunnel tests conducted in 2010,we built upon the scale model testing and observation by building an installation model outside the university and verifying the environmental effects through on-site testing and observation. We also held an exhibition to display some of the incredible formations that can be found in accumulated snow.
