The Playlist

For this assignment, we were required to do a listening booth, based on the study of compact space. By understanding the mechanism, such as 

-Stress
-Contractible & expandable
-Folding
  -Hinging (flexible joints)
- Assembling
  -Rolling
 -Nesting
  -Expanded & retracted
-Sliding
 -Inflation

our task is to design a space of 1500(L) x 1500 (W) x 2400(H)
We were given 4 weeks to do this assignments.

Here's a video to show how the mechanism works:

Reflection:
When I first receive this assignment, I wasn't sure what I was suppose to do and it was very confusing. After the mock up session, I finally understood what I was suppose to do for this projects. It was a bit challenging assignment, because we need to apply the mechanism into the model as well. But still I'd tried my hardest to finish building the model. I was actually enjoyed doing the furnitures rather than the walls and such. I hope I will be able to polish up my skill more doing model making in the future.
