Experimenting with Form

Task: "Develop a net in order to make a 3D form out of a 2D shape."

Background Information:
I derived this work from this picture I took of a brutalist staircase in Hayward Gallery in my photography task.

Process:
After some experimentation, I have come up with this net, which, after cutting it and assembling it together with some tape, gave me this result…

To develop this form even further, I have come up with an advanced version of the initial net...
This was an unexpected result, however it could be useful as a support structure for a building where there are many of them separating two floors...

Still not having achieved my initial plan for my model to look like a miniature version of the brutalist staircase, I created a different net. Instead of repeating my base shape horizontally like I did before, this time I tried repeating it vertically...
The result ended up being exactly what I intended, a continued version of the staircase...

Final Work:
