DEFLATABLE

Design with vacuum

There are many products and architecture that work with inflatable structures. One always has to deal with the problem of either a created durable vacuum enclosed in a suitable material or, closed bodies from which the air is evacuated, and a new vacuum is created. In this work deflatable structures and vacuum will be introduced. - Examples of existing vacuum products - Experiments and observation - Structure development - Deflatable structure/vacuum analysis - Using the 3 principles of vacuum for design and architecture - Portfolio of 12 conceptual products - Materials and technologies. More information and movies about the principles of deflatable structures: www.alexschaefer.eu
