CF Structure_NoTtl_14000k

MODU has conducted design research of carbon fiber structures for several years. The research explores the idea of a “flexing structure,” which creates structures that react to—rather than resist—the forces of wind. Carbon fiber is as an advanced structural material. While traditional structural systems are designed to be “hard” enough to resist dynamic wind forces, carbon fiber—with its very high strength to weight ratio—offers the possibility of rethinking the definition of structure and its relationship to weather.
