Esquisse 1

For the first day on Thursday we kick started the semester with a creative thinking excercise, coming up with ideas and concepts for adaptability, which is to lead into project 1.

We focussed on 'foldability' of 2d shapes to create forms. Our final model grew progressively from card folded into a series of triangles. Many different shapes were discovered until this final one, a star shape, which we felt had interesting form and features:



We imagine it being of a very large scale, and entrances are created out of every 2nd indentation into the star.
