Subseries A: Metaproject 01 - The Nodule, 2010-2011
Scope and Content Note
This subseries contains materials created by Francesca Pezze, maker of The Nodule prototype for the inaugural Metaproject challenge. The Nodule is a bathroom apparatus to ease the process of tending to personal grooming habits. The final product is a cylindrical stool, which is wider at the bottom and narrower toward the top; it has varying height supports which double as storage compartments. In this series are concept details, research, sketches, maquettes, and full-scale prototypes for Pezze’s submission, a runner-up of this competition.
