Abstract

This project emerges as a testing scenario for some of the new features of Softmodelling 2.0, it is part of a series of installations where bendability and connectivity of flexible pipes have been explored, acquiring a higher importance in the structure rather than the membrane itself. The installation was developed for London Clerkenwell Design Week 2015. In that example, most of the structural integrity is attributed to the geometrical arrangement of the PVC pipes. The three hanging structures were tested supporting the weight of an average adult. Therefore, proving their strength after the arrangement was completed.
