Where do we go from here?

The next step: continuing to define the "rules". What if our module was flexible, connected by cables? What if we looked at it like tailoring. Sure, you can buy off-the-rack. It's fine for everyday wear. But for special needs, you alter your garment. Why not your office or home?


If silicates are readily available and processable, I can see sturdy glass fabrics, like silicone baking sheets, making interesting skins: Flexible, any color, translucent or opaque, textured or smooth. Dude! Your house could be PLAID.



The modules could alternately be rigid, able to work with the tensile skins to create intersting forms.


Idea for a public assembly/large space-style "circus tent", like a hangar.


Doesn't everyone sing Sondheim in the kitchen?



Idea for ways to furnish irregular spaces. Why not line the walls with pockets for small articles, with bubble closets for larger ones?
