"A material study exploring how to make wood malleable and rigid at the same time. It was part of a bigger study - thinking about topographical visualization of a proposed architectural design (at scale), and being able to create models that not only help visualize an idea, but become pat of the ideation phase in real-time, allowing you to twist / lift / sink / bend / scrumple it in every possible way. In turn, influencing the bigger design. As a result of making these various tests and *hybrid materials*, people took them away post-project, to use as bowls, holders, light-shades, art-work in it's own right! I think the brass ones *(above)* were really cool - but, that'll have to be a different instructable..." (The trick is to meld wood veneer to copper mesh.)
