The idea was to use build a game from scratch that would integrate use of hard materials to understand their flexibility and use in real life construction.
The pieces were designed by trying life like models to understand length and size of the game and its pieces to be designed.
‘Play a game’ was created such that a peice of steel designed specially for the cage. There were 2 prototypes made of the same allowing sufficent experimentation.
Materials and their properties such as wood, steel and concrete were understood by molding them into various shapes. These materials were then combined together to help understand the joineries and an interesting game out of the same.
