In the early 1980s, Forrest Myers was applying Buckminster Fuller's principles of tensegrity and repeated tetrahedrons into his designs for furniture.
This exploration culminated in the use of aluminum wire that becomes structural when bent and pressed into a dense tangle. Applied tag with signature and date.
