The design is based on a study of pattern-making, focusing on the role of seams and the tension and folding forces they generate. The resulting form emerges from the assembly of interlocking pieces, with the volumes shaped by the process of wrapping and concealing these components.

The mesh shroud, inspired by the scaly bodice pattern, balances tailored and loose-fitting conditions. It conforms closely to the edges of the inner pieces but fits loosely around the cylinders. While the cylinders define the object's form and posture, they maintain a loose connection to the shroud. The interface between the shroud and cylinders draws from Japanese pattern-making techniques, particularly crater patterns, which create volume around curved edges. Additionally, seam registration is applied to the intersecting cylinders, echoing the assembly method of the cube bodice pattern.
