Capping our Arbois project at three distinct zinc profiles forced us to find rhythm through shadow and rotation rather than parts bloat. The sheet metal crew actually had the time to get every single hemmed edge right.
Did you land on those five profiles primarily through shadow studies, or were you strictly letting the bender's sheet yield drive the geometry?
The cladding contractor would buy you a pint for this. Elegance is almost always in the constraint, not the variation.
Rhythm always catches the rake of the sun better than sheer noise anyway. Good constraints make for gorgeous shadow depth.
Curious how you tested the optical depth during the mockup stage—did the daylight catch those five angles the way the math predicted once you got them outside?
