http://www.appropedia.org/Hexayurt_H17plus is born.
James, I didn't include your comments because I feel they belong in a wider discussion about naming hexayurts. For the sake of simplicity I state the "numeric name" and the "architectural name". I copy James' comments below in case someone finds a place to put it. All, please have a go at the page if needed. As I said, I just wanted to write the bare minimum, so as to let the viewers do the "hm, oo, wow, woah" dance themselves. Cheers! Lucas >>>Perhaps H_17 for example, with the _ being a letter representing the type mod variant. Like HH17 for HexaHybrid 17, or HC17 for HexaClerestory 17, and have a whole series of a certain design mod feature built in different sizes and panel numbers. I'm thinking the design variants could be virtually endless, so you could do HS7, 15, 18, 22, and 26 for the stretch series, H5, 12, and 18 for the traditional design. HG14 for the gable roof design and so on. The rest I've seen are usually a hybrid of two of these forms or have more or less wall sides like the penta, octa, and pyramid yurts.<<< 2014-08-06 20:00 GMT+01:00 Alex Williams <[email protected]>: > Hi all, > > Sorry for the late reply, currently on holiday with a quick grab at a > computer. > > I see that there have been many name considerations, I was unsure what > would pop up, so I was thinking of more mainstream naming, with H > (hexayurt?) then 17 for the amount of panels required (I can verify that it > takes a total of 17 panels to make this version) > > So I was loosly thinking of somehting along the lines of "H17+"?
