Entfaltung
Entfaltung (unfold, develop, expand)
Life is a voyage.
Collapsible structures reflect how our world is constantly changing. Jule Waibels response is to use folding as part of her design process.
A particular folding technique can transform simple sheet materials into three-dimensional objects, with the additional capability that they can expand and contract. A dress which changes its shape according to the movement of the body, an expandable bag and an umbrella are all made of Tyvek®, a lightweight water- and tear-proof synthetic paper. The project celebrates the beauty to be found between geometry, transformation and play. Their elegance, efficiency and beauty enhances Waibels life, on the move.
Bon voyage.
