So this is the material fringe project. A few sheets of newspaper are folded together then fed into a shredder creating varying lengths of fringe. They are then assembled together to create a sheet of varying fringe lengths that create a grade of fluff. The structure is just used as an armature. It is essentially a torqued tent frame.

The idea is to utilize material, color, texture and light to enhance sensibilities of space. It is more of a reaction to purist, Modernist ideas about material working from the "decor" of 80s postmodernism and into building cosmetics. Eisenman vs. Herzog and de Meuron.


Pictures coming soon. however here are some diagrams to keep you busy.
