Keep Kurve

Keep Kurve explores deployable structures using thin wooden wings assembled with rotating steel stud joints. Originally conceived as a roof structure for Bang-Po 2025 Design Week (though not fully realized due to time and safety constraints), the project demonstrates expandable/contractible systems with varied curvature potential. The design accommodates multiple bending configurations while remaining lightweight and transportable, inspired by Leonardo da Vinci's scissor mechanism studies.
