The design strategy explores the potential of a “woven� wood system, without assemblies and based on friction. The argument is that simplicity in the manufacture of a wicker basket can be abstracted and applied to the architecture using strips of wood. This logic prepares a woven pattern on the floor which is deformed and fixed at the ends to maintain its shape. Additionally, a manufacturing logic is sought where stiffness in bending wood, curvature and friction of the system are considered.
