Exploring the notion of structures of impermanence started through out the sand solidification research. Through this phase of the research the focus was to redefining the idea of molds. Exploring malleable molds, a mold created by the same material, to create an organic form and leave space for material contingency where the sand responds as structure and a mold.


Understanding the idea that material is an intuitive design tool, the forms created an engaging well structured spaces. .

This phase of the research explored building dome, column, cone and surface structures through sand qualities and gravitational forces. The structures revealed details from their own specific landscape.
