FLY WAVE

This project explores bending systems using Lycra fabric and cane to create playful, interactive environments for children. By stretching fabric to its maximum elasticity and stitching a two-dimensional cane pattern onto both sides, the system transforms into lightweight, double-curved three-dimensional forms suitable for sitting, crawling, and playing. Combining material behavior with computational workflows, the design achieves scalable, sustainable structures. The resulting forms, defined by synclastic and anticlastic curvatures, offer versatile spaces that engage children through organic and dynamic configurations.
