A Collapsible Tensile Structure
Design project for a collapsible membrane structure, a competition run by MDT-Tex, a swiss designer and manufacturer of architectural shading systems and tensile structures.
 
Chanel Rings
After developing a complex proposals, the concept of two simple, interlocking rings was returned to. The ‘Chanel Rings’ provide a simple and marketable idea, potentially suitable for commercial clients such as the Olympics, Chanel or Audi.
 
Designed as a single module, the rings can be used individually, supporting a hammock. The studio also explored joining multiple units together, resulting in the design for an external lounge.
Chanel Rings Lounge
 
Comprising three pairs of “Chanel Rings”, the lounge provides a compact, outdoor lounge and bar solution which is easily assembled and transported. The product provides an upmarket alternative for garden pavilions at events and parties.
