After creating my initial designs for the sleeping platform, I developed the ideas that I thought best created the sense of safety and security but also a sense of exposure and vulnerability (below).

I liked how this design gave the occupant a sense of own personal space and enclosure, but this was challenged by the flowing movement and translucent material. By exposing these strangers to one another in an individual and intimate moment challenges my own views and ideas of comfort and peacefulness. I confront the strangers with the interchanging sense of peace and vulnerability.
From this design I created a few new iterations (below).

Development 1 
Development 2 
Development 3

Development 4
These designs ultimately led to my chosen design of a double hammock.
