As the concept of 'adaptability' is a key element of RARE Architecture, the task was to design and build a prototype for the most adaptable space we could imagine. The aim being to create the most space using the least materials.
Our first idea came about through thinking about modes of expandibility. A single piece of paper was a simple example - you can scrunch it into a tiny ball but then open it up and it creates such a unique space within.
We developed this idea further by creating an exterior form that was not only architecturally different from the interior, but one that could aid in supporting such a tensile structure.
