A cluster of three bike frames, that was developed in previous studies on compact cells, is used as a spatial module.

A triangulated container is created around the cluster geometry and simplified to a deformed tetrahedral cell.

Based on an aggregation system from our previous research project, the tetra-units are assembled into a spatial framework. A single unit type is used with every second instance flipped by 180° and each connected at the corner points – the aggregation can be continued infinitely.

The bike frame geometries are cut off at the corners to create flat connections.

The aggregation is then compressed so that adjacent cluster modules are connected. Due to its repetitive logic, the system can still be continued infinitely forming interconnected cells.

The resulting structures share interesting similarities with Konrad Wachsmann’s theoretically infinite designs.
