Rotation


After looking at the project below "Inflatable Solivoid" - "which took $113,000 and has taken 18 months to create"

I was thinking how we can simplify things and let the beauty of the fabric and flow of air create our space. Rather than rely on traditional structural methods.

Instead of using cells, lattice or columns to control the form maybe we could just one contiguous skin and just control the direction of air flow.

This will not only maximise the use of air flow and give a light ephemeral effect almost like floating but will also give a faster interaction to movement rather than wait for the other cells to deflate.

Just a thought.
