Soft Boundaries II uses digital knitting technology to construct a modular partition system for interior spaces. Just as clothing defines the physical body, interior designs create spaces that shape the experience of the body in these settings. This prototype is knit as a single panel using recycled polyester and spandex yarns. The structure is a series of channels stuffed with foam noodles then supported structurally with metal pipe, allowing for various configurations.
