Cardboard Chaise Prototype I Quarter Iso Grid

This prototype chaise is modelled in Rhino 3D. The "Quarter Iso Grid"- Cutting Files are generated by a grasshopper definition which is inspired by Mike Sheldrake's great iso grid cardboard surfboards. This prototype development is kindly supported by Mike Sheldrake (http://sheldrake.net/cardboards/), Oliver Fritz // CIAD - Cologne Institute for Architectural Design // Chair of CAD.CAM Tischlerei Bächer GmbH.

The prototype and further droducts and design studies of will be displayed at the DQE, Design Quartier Ehrenfeld at the "Passagen 2012" from January 16th to 22nd in Cologne, Germany.

Cardboard Surfboards I Quarter Iso Grid

This cardboard surfboard core is generated by a grasshopper "iso-grid" definition. The work is inspired by Mike Sheldrake's great iso grid cardboard surfboards. The project's goal is to create individual, customer-shaped cardboard core surfboards based on a web-based shape generator based on i.e. processing. This project is kindly and proudly supported by Mike Sheldrake, Tischlerei Bächer GmbH / Sebastian Bächer, Christoph Schulz, Maik Holtiegel and Jan Tenbücken.

Further application opportunities in field of interior design and architecture are being tested.
