Overnight we’d all had a chance to consider the potentials of wood as a building material. We discussed the benefit of having a flexible material to build with, much unlike glass or brick. Furthermore, this led us to the idea of making something more flexible and playful in it’s nature. How can we engage the user with our structure? We soon decided the idea of moveable components would both be possible considering the properties of wood, and interesting for the public to interact with. We came up with the possibility of a central axis, from which seats were held, and could move around. This would allow and encourage conversation, as people could move seats to suit themselves.
