Do it Yourself Shelf

Beginning with the word "unraveling", I was assigned to explore which existing products unravel upon user contact, and then create a shelf that embodies that point-of-contact. The sketches here show my ideation process. Watch the videos listed in the picture captions to understand the unraveling motion I'm talking about and how the shelf works.
