In this project, a natural structure, barnacles, was given to explore. Through analysis, barnacles can be determined by the growth number. Hence, the structural keyword of this project is Clustering. The design concept is inspired by the growth of Barnacles. The design process started with sketches that were translated into origami models. Origami model is translated into a frame model to build up the structure of the barnacles itself. Hence, through the structure of the barnacles it able to translate into the final model.
