Case Study 01:
A recreational structure designed to support skating, resting, and social interaction within a shared public space. The origami-folded surfaces are clad in mycelium-based panels that contribute to the filtration of airborne particulates while creating an engaging environment for movement. The intervention allows skaters to move through, gather beneath, and rest around the structure, combining environmental performance with an informal space for recreation and community interaction.
