Equal and Opposite Reaction - The hand is capable of many different movements. When designing this prototype my goal was to explore the hand by creating an object that would mimic the basic motion of the hand and perform the opposite action relative to what the hand does. To achieve this goal I designed around Newtons basic laws of motion such as force and equal/opposite reactions. Materials used: paper, mattboard, rubber band fragments, and velcro.
Cliff Model - This model was part of a group project for a cliff valley in which each person designed a living space within each section of the cliff. My design is based on hexagons because I wanted to explore outside of the ordinary four walls interior design and increase efficiency. If a square and a hexagon have the same perimeter, the hexagon will have a greater area. The bridge sticking out of the structure is designed to connect to the other side of the valley. Size: 7x10x22in.
Cliff Plans - Top left: The roof with a hexagon water filter for filtering rain water. Mid left: The living space which consists of a living room, kitchen, bathroom, and three bedrooms. Top middle: The storage space with support columns evenly spaced around the room. Middle: Public space with a bridge outside to the other side of the valley. Mid right: Passage way for water to travel through along with an access elevator in the back. Bottom: front and side views of the cliff.
