The first ever prototype frame for the QuaDror being made in the MetaLab in Texas
The unique space truss geometry - QuaDror - is made from the assembly of four identical L-shaped pieces, either thin resulting in a trestle structure, or thick resulting in a solid panel.
The collapsible system allows for rapid assembly and a transition from closed and flat to open and self-standing
QuaDror is a new space truss geometry that unfolds manifold design initiatives and can adapt to various conditions and configurations
The unique structure can adapt to a variety of conditions and configurations and be used in a number of different ways, including in architecture
