The project asked for the mechanical creation of an inflatable space that could be inhabitable. The room developed by our team was able to adapt to the context by locking itself to an existing wood fence. The project was materialized with construction plastic. The connection of the pieces was solved with a specific adhesive tape with enough strength to withstand the air pressure. To solve the access, we developed a double door, one side fixed to the fence and the other connected to the membrane, that allowed for construction and deconstruction as desired.
Materials Used to Build the Membrane.
Packaging Tape: 48 mm wide 900 m used approximately Various shades of brown and Transparent Polyethylene: 100 microns thick 4 m wide 40 m used approximately
