Using Japanese joinery as inspiration, the joint system is able to self support and aggregate without any additional adhesives.



Taking concepts from a previous joinery project, the curvature of the joint allows for movement between pieces and therefore can be a flexible and multi-directional system. Composed of ball and socket connections, the form is able to infinitely aggregate.
