Deployable Shelter project


After years in archi school, this is still one of the most brilliant ideas of innovation that I had with my team mate. This Year 1 project involved the design of a deployable shelter, which would be built to the actual size. Therefore we unitlise the asian material bomboos as the main structure, by exploring the form of animals engaging in some form of activity. The mechanism is the exploration of the fluidity of the structure.

It is a elegant design, with simple design and steps involved in the assembly work. What a pity that I lost the picture of the actual mock-up, which I simply think is gorgeous! Allow me sometime to dig through my portfolio, maybe then you will share the same sentiment as I do:)
