Short Term project 2 _ Open circular design Wonderworkshop
with Prof. Lars Zimmermann
Industrial Design, HTW Berlin
Anyone can be a designer. My works are made from scrap wood. While experimenting with various discarded materials such as paper and cardboard, I realised that wood is the strongest storage device I can make. I was also inspired by my first-year project, in which the tetrahedrons were neatly arranged and combined to create a beautiful visual effect. The basic unit of the storage unit is a small triangular shape consisting of three pieces of wood.
The triangular pieces can be easily cut from scrap wood at home and joined together with thin wire. The triangles themselves are stable, and the wire gives the entire installation unexpected support. It is very easy to build this simple storage unit at home, and the entire installation fits into the concept of open, circular design.
