<p dir="ltr" style="text-align: left">The principal goal of the project was to design an dynamic and transfiguring structure . The concept was to design joints which would allow parts of the structure to move, without reducing the overall structural integrity. The capability of motion using the joints was explored trying to enhance the aesthetic qualities.</p>
<p dir="ltr" style="text-align: center"><a href="http://legacy.iaacblog.com/maa2013-2014-digital-fabrication/files/2013/11/g.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" alt="g" src="http://legacy.iaacblog.com/maa2013-2014-digital-fabrication/files/2013/11/g-300x69.jpg" width="300" height="69" /></a></p>
<p dir="ltr" style="text-align: left">Our thought process was to design a joint, which had the capability of motion of half circle to move within itself and transfigure into an variant structure .The initial study was to investigate the diverse resultant motion of  joint. The joint designed was an spwith slits with the other rods fitted in allowing  it to rotate on its axis at 180 degrees by taking advantage of the 3D printing technology .The bending properties of the pipe was explored and transforming the structure from a tower to swirling circular form. The 3D printing technology gave the opportunity to explore joints which resulted  in dynamic and kinectic changes in the form of the structure. Thus allowing the structure to transform from a tower to swirling circular form using rolling joints.</p>
