PROTOTYPE 1: MATERIAL EXPLORATION
Following the technique development where we obtained our starting point for this project, we started to fabricate our model. The material was flat when it was finished and our group agreed that bending our panels would create slightly better effect that is more appropriate and closer to deliver our design brief for travellers. Thus we also fabricated a platform for our model to stand on with “slots� on it so we can slip the model on the slots. We used few different materials. First material that we used was box board because its nature is a little similar with timber and it is rather flexible so at this point we would not have to worry about the panels breaking out when we try to bend them.
