Esquisse Three - 'locking System'



Experimentation


In this esquisse, my aim is to create a structure using the minimal material that could hold 100kg weight. I've make 3 model. First, i created a box with diagonal sheet inside, it's work with my weight, however, i still wasn't satisfied with it, as i'm not sure if it could hold 100kg. The next model was the long piece of cardboard that roll together, it was really strong, but it doesn't give the good looking form.


Folding Techniques



Thus, i finally decided to develop the box form, as it use minimal material. Moreove, to make it stronger, i doubled the thickness of the cardboard by folding small part at the top of the cardboard.


Final Outcome



I'm satisfied with the final outcome, as it is stronger and also has a good looking form.
