Re: Can light be dimmed at its source (or can the source be removed) w/o losing the effect of light? With an arced wall that wouldn't work, only with a straight wall. From your image I thought the angled roof part with the windows was straight. A 7% arc is difficult to see on a flat image. If you could keep the part with the windows straight you could still try the window-in-wall method, otherwise you're out of luck. By-the-way, that would mean that your windows also have a 7% arc? Ok, that's what I'd figured, and, oh, no, I wouldn't imagine anyone else, looking at that pic would know the roof panel was arced. I only know because I made it and I forgot until I just went and checked. Actually, no, the windows only rotate on the one axis so they generally match the wall, but if you look closely you'll see they don't all line up perfectly. I had to push some back a tiny bit further so that they would at least touch the wall due to the arc. Some parts of them sit a little more recessed into the wall than other parts of the same 'window', but this was the best solution I had to sustain the illusion of it all being as it should be. I used to have greater gaps where the windows weren't even touching the walls, and that took me a while to discover because with the common colors, perspective and layout, it didn't show until I manipulated the pieces in certain ways. |
