STATEMENT
“ Our idea started to lose their original sustainability design intent when it comes to scaling from 1: 5 to 1:1. Our design intent for sustainability
is by using a reverse pa�ern, whereby we reverse the harden mould structure and back to its original stage which is scrim fabric. Just like the ship
of Theseus where by it gradually undergoes the replacement of each of its cons�tuent plank. Our design undergoes changes in the use from corn
starch to epoxy. But the concept of sustainability is kept by applying to the sphere shape mould. Even though the sphere can’t reverse to original
MDF state, it has a new life of reusing as a shelf. Based on the paradox we believe that the ship that went through gradual changes is the ship of
Theseus. Because the effort to maintain the ship carries the soul while the reconstructed ship with old materials lacks of soul. Just like our design,
the sustainability implemented in different way but s�ll contains the essence of it. The essence or soul is what makes the ship authen�c just like
our final design. ”
