The Extension is a sustainable system of polyhedral connected together which can be assembled when needed. The space can be occupied and be used as a working space. The joineries to construct the framework of the structure are design so that they can be 3D printed and can still be able to support the structure. 3D printing is explored by making prototypes for the same in various scales.

Exploration of various forms.
Start of the design process through analyzing the site.
Studying human movement and the polyhedral dimensions.
Studying the volume of the polyhedral with respect to human and the process of developing the nodal joinery.
Exploring the surface through physical and digital models and structure through the prototype model.
Analyzing the sun with respect to the surfaces on the structure.
Technical information of the base and the nodal joinery.
The process of 3D printing.
Prototype 2 to understand the stability at 1:2.5 scale.
The environmental renders explaining how the form responds or would respond to the site it is placed on.
