The Trifold's shape is informed by a combination of triangular surfaces and a unique folding sequence. It has a minimalist yet complex and sculptural design, from every view angle it reveals a unique composition. The design can be scaled to suit various purposes without compromising its structural integrity. The Trifold is a showcase of digital fabrication methods and the use of new manufacturing technologies such as robotics. The production process has been developed in collaboration with a robotic fabrication company specialising in folding metals with 6-axis robots.

German born designer Max Hauser was trained in Munich and Chicago and currently works and lives in Munich and London. His approach is greatly influenced by his background in architectural design and his interest in innovative fabrication technologies. He focuses on an interdisciplinary approach where design, engineering and fabrication play equally strong roles. All of his designs aim to showcase a balance between art and technologies.
