Briefing

Designing a marble run which represents two opposing adjectives. The conglomerate should be quadratic, mounted to a wall and exhibited at the Campus.Design.Open exhibition.

  • Year: 2018
  • Semester: first
  • Team: single project

prototype

To test the run I did build a cardboard prototype. Thereby, I could adapt the marble run to the speed of the marble and playfully fix bugs.

After a lot of testing, I got the right dimensions and proportions. Next, I built a final, working model out of fibreboards.

Concept

„un/expected“ takes up the archetypical marble run and represents the two opposites expected and unexpected.

The diagonal tracks create symmetry. Behind the covered right side the marble takes an unsuspected way and therefore surprises the user. In this way, the graphic symmetry is broken and an interesting effect is created.
