This project was super fun. We were looking to reference a gymnastics aesthetic so I had to look at what type and sizes of mats were available and design the whole room to fit these pieces like a puzzle. We then designed this diving platform as a fun little loft for viewing the movie. I ended up designing an extra large base to be hidden under the mats to make it stable with the single post.
We then got to design an alternate version for the Berlin Biennial. This was great because I just sent a fabrication team my plans and they built it to our specifications. What a treat:)
