Esquisse 1: A RARE Concept

In a group of Alex Dickson, Ashleigh Graystone and myself, we investigated ways to produce a space which was adaptable. Using paper we folded a fan like structure, which could fold away and smaller or larger spaces could be made. The images below are of the model which we as a group constructed.





After constructing the model all the groups came together to discuss a selection of models which had been produced during the tutorial. 

Some of the adaptability mode which were discussed by the students and tutors were:
  1. Modules - Repetitions
  2. Archi-origami - Folding planes
  3. Balloon
  4. Pneumatic slinky/Slinky Structure
  5. Pop-up book construction
  6. Concertina
  7. Pastry Cutting
  8. Tensile-organic
  9. Collapsible Box
  10. Umbrella
