prototypes for adaptable spaces

The following photos show 2 examples of adaptable spaces. Both use repetitive geometric modules which stretch and contract according to the desirable function or weather.


concept 'concertina'

1. flat mode
ideas ... eaves for sun protection
... flat packing

Hey Jonathan this is not a comment on your esquisse but a comment on your drawing skills. You have an extraordinary ability with the pen and pencil which is a talent that is not only so rare but so desirable as it draws people in - an evocative drawing brings the viewer right into the moment, the space, the excitement etc. Keep it up. You have an awesome talent.
