Isosahedron Tensegrity form Development for RISD's Design Science Course
I focused on Layering Tensegrity structures, by taking the 20 triangular faced Isosahedron Tensegrity and ,through cut shapes, branched into a new tengegrity forms. Exploration into how the central points and vertices of the Isosahedron Tensegrity could become a new engineered structure lead me to intricate networks of cardboard and thread.

Began to attach shapes that extened the edges and/ or vertices of the Golden Frame
