The start of the design process was strong. Lots of ideas and even more enthusiasm. The first ideas we had started with the principles of a wall. However our brief was to do a stairs, so on the second day we hit a wall. |
− | The strong points from the first idea we agreed upon were to allow vertical movement in two directions and obtain a high adaptability. The stairs would be able to reconfigure into a desk, chair, bed and even a shelter. On the second day of the workshop the decision was made that we should not make a component that would transform into a stairs, but the other way around. Also the amount of configurations we tried to achieve was too much for the time frame for this workshop. | + | The strong points from the first idea we agreed upon were to allow vertical movement in two directions and obtain a high spatial adaptability.

The final design is a thread in which all the components (links) are able to actuate the component to which they are attached. By the influence of the amount of light that is cast upon the component the structure will become either a desk or a stair. The amount of different configurations with these components is not limited to the proposed two configurations. | The final design is a thread in which all the components (links) are able to actuate the component to which they are attached.
