Abstract
Fabrication techniques and design potential of up-cycling plastic bags by heat-pressure lamination are explored. The material properties are tested and put into a digital design system. The main performance criteria is structure. Two design prototypes are being discussed. The first one is using a set of modular molds and a second one a techniques of inflated cushions resulting in shapes closely matching these in curved folding.
