The genesis of this project was the exploration ofthenatureofarachnidsinbothformandperformance,throughdrawing,sculpture,andmodel.Earlysculpturaliterationsfocusedonthethree-dimensionalbodiesofweb-weaving spiders; later iterations explored theprocessofwrappingindialoguewithsolidelementsasawaytogenerateform.Finally,theideasofwrapping,weaving, and tension structurally evolved into avariationonthespaceframe,whichbecamethebasisfor a portable wilderness hostel. Martin Heidegger’swritingsonphenomenologyservedasabasisforthisreversed design process, where our studio exploredessencethroughtheactofcreation,thenprogrammedandappliedarchitecturalmeaningtotheresultantobjects.
