Solid Balloons

Can wall panels blow up? The short answer is: Yes!

Using Grasshopper to explore pneumatic behavior with variable pressure and constraints, the aim of this project was to build a prototype of a solid wall panel with a unique form and even more unique tactile qualities.
Moving from the digital realm to the physical, a field of hurdles and valuable lessons was met. Failure and perseverance were the over-arching themes that characterized the making of the prototype.
