Inhabited Membranes
Team: Martynas Šeškas, Claudia Colmo, Jens Ulrik Jørgensen, Alma Bangsgaard Svendsen, Malte Emil Harrig, Marina Resch, Daniel Nolkrantz
Type: Workshop
Year: 2018
‘Inhabited Membranes’ asked us to consider the qualities of a textile architecture. By introducing minimal membranes we explored, designed and made our own full scale textile spaces for inhabitation. Membrane architecture is most often associated with large scale semi-exterior spaces. Using laminated weaves they remote the body away and far from the tactile qualities of the textiles we know from clothes and interior. In this workshop, we tried to imagine how a textile system can exist at the scale of the body and the interior. We worked through simple digital-material workflows, informed by intuitive and craft-based hand-on design thinking to explore the structural, spatial and environmental potentials of textile space.
