deformTable: Crafting a Shape-changing Device for Creative Appropriations Over Time

Shape-Changing Interfaces & Soft Robotic MaterialsMakers & DIY EnthusiastsHCI Researchers

In this pictorial, we present critical reflections on the design process of crafting the deformTable. The table is a shape-changing device that can go up and down based on the weight of objects placed on it. This pictorial focuses on key design decisions in making a shape-changing artifact like the deformTable that explores how deformability, temporality, and materiality can encourage creative appropriations over time. We believe this pictorial contributes to how to design research products that can investigate shape-changing artifacts in everyday settings over time.
