Commissioned by Rolls Royce, this simple structure for We The Curious was designed to demonstrate parachutes and how they work. 

The conical shape that we produced forms a run-off for the parachute so that the items fall to the outside edge, meaning that the children visiting the exhibition do not need to climb on the structure (although this is tempting!)
