Zero-Gravity Dirigible
The curve of a chair leg, the pitch of a roof, the profile of a mullion — all of these things are shaped, almost unconsciously, according the orientation of our bodies to the earth. Take gravity away, and you’re designing in a void, literally.
Bureau Spectacular, led by Jimenez Lai, designed a living module placed on mechanism that rotates very slowly. The volume makes a complete turn every hour, meaning that every 15 minutes, one of the multi-planed surfaces becomes usable.
