Whilst at university I did a small research project into the tensile structures by Frei Otto. I made numerous tensile structures of my own using similar methods to Frei Otto. The models pictured above were produced with tights. This is a very effective way of producing interesting tensile forms. I have continued exploring the Kangaroo plugin for Grasshopper and have been able to produce very similar tensile forms digitally to those which I produced physically. There is a further plugin…
