STAGE 1 RESEARCH A: LIGHTWEIGHT CHAIRS AND MATERIALS


ESQUISSE NO.1 - SPAGHETTI CHALLENGE

In week 2, we did the "Esquisse - spaghetti challenge" which is build a stool 400 x 400 x 400 mm using spaghetti and paper tape

The first model, it is weak because we did not have enough time to construct more strength points

This second model, we used more ideas about how to make it stronger, give it more strength

Different view

It has a triangle shape

Daniel is testing the model, first with his iPhone.

And after that, using tape and a bottle of water. In conclude, the model break and we discover how to improve more strength. The bottom of the model was strong, but the top is still weak

 The two spaghetti models.
