Rhythm of literacy structure to spatial movement

The motion of folding, unfolding that leads to tightness, tension and therefore resolved to the pulling action. The design evolved from the fascinating interplay between architecture and the literacy poem; engaging with the principles of fluidity of circulation in and out of the rigidity of the shell. The design is about the interlocking moment and shifting motion to introduce spatial possibilities. It emphasizes on the strong repetition and movement of a single module, each connected by its peeling opening. The curvilinear line contrasts with the angular plane, thus merging the boundary of a defined space.
