Further Developments

To further our Fale design we have expanded on our nautical theme and explored the idea of our “boat deck” being transformed into a raft with found materials – wood, palm leaves, bits of plastic and weed-matting – things that you might find washed up on the beach if you were stuck on an island and needing to create a raft.
We are also investigating a pulley system which came about from thinking about the rigging and sales on a yacht. This would enable us to put our things in a bucket/basket on the ground and pull it up the tree instead of struggling with carrying things up through the branches.
