botte mote

thingiverse

Botte Mote is constructed from 3mm DMF sheets or plywood, which have been digitally cut. Additionally, small recycled plastic bottles are utilized for assembling the object. The design allows for versatile configurations and collapsible structures. It's ideal for urban spaces, but can also be used in various other circumstances. This project was developed by a team including Isabel Gonzalez, Lucas Lopez, and Javier Yela, under tutelage of Areti Nikolopoulou and Jose Perez de Lama, with collaboration from Susana Velasco. The development took place during the "The Commons Factory :: Plug-ins at Santa Ana" workshop in October 18-25th, 2010, at Absolut Lab [Fab Lab], Madrid, Spain. For cutting, laser cutters are recommended with 3mm x 810x600mm DMF sheets or 3mm plywood. The digital files should be tested for compatibility with the specific laser cutter being used. Assembly of small plastic bottles is done by joining their bottom parts with "bridas" and fixing them to DMF pieces using screwed bottle cups. The proposed designs feature scissor-like configurations, which enable collapsibility. Rhino and DXF files are cutting files, while assembly drawings will be uploaded soon.
