Overview
Ongoing research at Lama Lab, TU Delft. We're evaluating candidate directions (casting, non-planar printing, stacked snap-fit elements, hybrid methods) against material feasibility and the lab's fabrication toolset. The short clip above is from the current prototyping cycle. Designing a mould that is supposed to fall apart afterwards turns out to require more care than one that isn't.
