Project
 

16 Conical pods in a wide variety of sizes and shapes were made from 81mm thick SIPs. The flat area plywood is laminated on EPS and the curved sections had injected foam.

Delivery had to be in component form for introduction through personnel doors. They were then assembled to form out of-plumb structures up to 6m high which seemed to defy gravity.
