While trying to figure out how to properly construct our building, I noticed that my sketchbook looks like I am composing a symphony. Here is a page, as an example:


Each line shows 2 cycles of a weaving pattern. Below it lists the number of overlaying layers are found on each wire. to the right is a diagram showing the shape the pattern takes. The number in the circle is the number of columns in the pattern and underneath is the number of egg crates needed per cycle.
I shows our first pattern, II shows the most recent one. III and IV are studies for using 7 columns instead of 9, and V is a study for 8 columns. VI increases the indentation in the middle, VII introduces a window, VIII looks at how we can reverse the curvature and make it concave instead of convex.
