System 1 is a prototypical set of five pieces that can be assembled in an infinite number of ways - to proliferate in space in endless possibilities. The assembly is based on traditional solutions, and abstracts the support to its essential model of tensioned and compressed members.
These five primary pieces are the foot, leg, support, plate, and connector plate. All the pieces exist in varying sizes, and can be assembled together depending on the needs of the user. They can add, multiply, scale, and expand. The pieces are all compatible with each other and don’t need any additional work to fit together.
Each assembly is only an interpretation of an object, and the system can be assembled in any solution the user deems enjoyable. The model is abstracted enough to be made from any material and finishing - although the main prototype is made of raw carbon steel.
