EXERCISE 01 Aim Acheiving doubly curve by using a material system by finding the form using its material property, i.e ,flexible changing to stiffness, by the technique cutting and bending where series of interations are made interms of changing the slit size, postion and angle to achieve doubly curve through shifting the vertices. Material used is Jute board in which it has a property of flexibility and has bending nature, in which it is used to influence the stiffness and strength brought through the form doubly curve form. The material system used is grid system. Techniques used is cutting and bending.
EXERCISE 02 Abstract Origami is a paper folding technique that is said to be originated from Japan and China which involves the orderly folding of the sheet material in a symmetrical or asymmetrical, arbitrary or geometrical patterns. This results in formation of sheet material into a three dimensional form with variable stability, curvature and strength of the final form by inducing a pattern on the sheet material. Taking the thesis “ Evaluating Origami Tessellations for Spatial Interior Elements” (Tondon, Srijana 2019) further study will be done in order to justify the digital experiments being done in the document along with development of a set of relationships amongst different possible variables while explorations for the given three patterns which have been attained through the reference document. Starting with the explorations being done with one material to get the relationship among different possible variables. the main aim of the project is to develop a relationship of origami pattern with the various parameters which can be changed according to the requirement.
Objective Exploring the origami patterns with different iterations based upon the change in orientation, angles between the kernels, sheet size, etc.. The explorations are to be made with the idea of generating a relation between height, lengt and stability of the structure so that later the data to be input to gain a stable structure for the required use the pattern can establish a stable geometry for interior spatial element through the resultant relation. For this, hands on models have been made along the process so as to understand the measurable changes that occur with changing of parameters along the journey.
INTRODUCTION
The Origami patterns of Yoshimura pattern and two variations of Water Bomb Origami pattern have been taken through the study of the thesis referred for the further studies as well as to check the difference between the digital and hands on results by manually making all the experiments throughYoshimura Input Pattern PATTERN - 1 out.

each experiments has to be done for all the three patterns and relationship of length, Height and stability has to be developed based upon the inferences. Keeping material constant, the starting experiments will include the change in sheet sizes which will be followed by the experimentation in changing in di- PATTERN - 2 Water Bomb Input Pattern visions along the sheet so as to observe FIG. 2 Source:Origamisimulator.org. what these changes result into. Orientation of the sheet and angles between the kernels will also be maniipulated in order to check what changes do they result in. The patterns taken are in the images i nthe right where Fig. 1 shows Yoshimura pattern, Fig. 2 shows water bomb pattern, and Fig 3. shows alternative

CONCLUSION
By evaluating all the three patterns it can be concluded that each parameter has its own role for defining the resultant from the given input pattern. Pattern 1A. Deployed displacement achieved is two times in sheet size 400x400 B. the pattern starts to curl after X/15 divisions in the X Direction c. horizontal orientation gives higher curves. D. Vertical orientation gives more stable geometry. E. two way curves cacn be achieved by changing the density of the number of divisions along the X Direction of the sheet. Pattern 2A. Deployed displacement achieved keeps on increasing with increase in sheet size B. the pattern starts to curl after X/12 divisions in the X Direction c. horizontal orientation gives higher curves. D. Vertical orientation gives more stable geometry. Pattern 3A. Deployed displacement achieved keeps on increasing with increase in sheet size B. the pattern does NOT curl inwards whereas makes very sharp angles instead. c. horizontal orientation gives higher curves. D. Vertical orientation gives more stable geometry.
EXERCISE 03 This exercise focuses on identifying the problems in the respective chosen locations which have been hindering the regular living processes of the people living in the area. The study has been made for the beaches of Goa where shacks are found for catering the tourist inflow that is there which is increasing year by year. Due to heavy precipitation months from June to August, the shacks are removed from there respective positions on the beach due to the increase in water line because of high tides during high rainfall season. Beecause of which, the shack owners have to spend money every year contributing to the cost of erection of structure, materials used and environment. So further experiments have been made by identifying the issues that are being observed in the location and catering to the problem by creating a deployable shack structure and keeping in mind the visibility and thermal comfort based upon solar radiation of the visitors.

Conclusion -The proposed module can be used for creating a deployable structure for the places where it has to be mantled and dismantled frequently -The fabric used for the mechanism can help in generating the amount of sunlight and radiation entering the structure -The movement of each module depends upon the pivot point of the scissors mechanism giving a curved surface for the structure -The placement of fabric can regulate the opening of the scissors according to the point of contact -The anchor point for the system is crucial in order to enclose the amount of volume that is required for the structure -with the decrease in number of divisions for pivot point of scissors, there is an increase in span and height achieved for the system.
Way Forward - The system is reesponding to the idea of maximising the amount of ease that is posisble for generating a system which can be removed and erected again and again with the least amount of damges - The system has the potential lof furthe rexploration for change in pivotpoints for scissors mechanism so as to achieve the larger - The system can be explored in various materials depending upon the performance required such as fabric can be used for tension, translucent material can be used for increased visibility etc.. - The assemblies of the modules can further be experimented with, with changing in size of the sticks - the joinery of the pivots can be explored further depending upon the material used for making scissors such as bamboo, pvc pipes, ply board etc.
