Deconstructed Jenga

A stack of platforms on a city corner that rearranges itself through the day. When it’s quiet they pull apart into small, closed-off places to sit alone. When it’s social they cross into shared spaces for groups. When it’s busy the whole thing opens up.

Core I, Fall 2017. Critic: Tei Carpenter

Axonometric of the stacked timber platforms with people on them
The whole stack, people and all.
Plans and elevations of the platforms in quiet, social and busy states
The same platforms through the day. When it’s quiet, they pull apart into small spaces to be alone. When it’s social, they cross and join up for groups. When it’s busy, they open out and make room to move.

Say hello.

Working on something for the built environment? I’d love to hear about it.
