Fluid Form

In this project, we were to explore the various "Fluid Forms" in the city and in our surroundings. From a list of precedents, i studied the work of Zakary Kinnaird focusing on his Yokohama Ferry Terminal as a basis for my fluid form idea. I experimented with Cardboard in my initial idea, but this material proved to have limited Fluidity options with the shape that i was trying to achieve. I tried to incorporate the main precedent (Yokohama Ferry Terminal) with its surrounding setting (the ocean) by shaping my Fluid Form in a similar shape as a shell. I made it using drafting film as it worked light, had good versatility and its bending restrictions were minimal. I sliced 5 evenly measured strips and taped them next to each other by the base and cut the tops so that each strip was a different length and folded them all to one point and attached this point back to the base I had created my Fluid Form.
