Inspired by the work of Buckminster Fuller, the workshop probes strategies and archetypes observed throughout the natural world, from microcosm to macrocosm. Discovering these principles for ourselves through play develops an embodied understanding and an experiential basis for future design strategies. After collectively building a fractal pyramid and geodesic dome, the session will end with a reflection. How might the structural propositions we have encountered inspire and empower us to create a world which balances our needs - current, collective, and future?
