Mode is a design office that leverages computational expertise through design research, teaching, and consulting.
Mode utilizes diverse methodologies including code, associative and relational strategies, as well as digital fabrication in the production of material organizations and the formation of space.
While we are interested in intense iterative design processes, we believe the evolution and contextualization of these procedures in a broader social and cultural domain is both our primary objective and the means for embedding interest and significance into design.

Mode is Ronnie Parsons and Gil Akos.

Strange Inflatables is a polyscalar study in the potentials for the combination of folding and welding patterns of PET plastic to create inflatable structures.

The resulting prototypes were also tested for their translucent distortion of the surrounding environment through varying plastic thicknesses and lighting effects.
