Compound Kirigami and Mapped Folds

 



Honeycomb Knit / 2020
From Zero-Waste Shaping Research
            A traditional kirigami honeycomb folding structure translated into a knit fabric, creating a soft, flexible, collapsible material. When a small amount of pressure is applied to one side or the other, the material can expand, contract, and “breathe,” allowing more or less light in depending on outside conditions. Paper folded, strung models below. 





Mapped Folds / 2020
From Zero-Waste Shaping Research

           Experimenting with mapping knit structures onto complex forms as a way to create tailored, textured, zero-waste pieces. By combining a folding pleated structure with larger dynamic shapes, complex forms are collapsible right off the machine with no need for after-processing.
