It Looks Impossible,

but it is not,


the structure relies on one thing, tensegrity or tensional integrity, the design principle is based on the idea that a structure under compression within a system of constant tension will create a stable shape, this new sculpture by JK Brickworks, a design team of Jason and Kristal Allemann, appears to defy gravity as it hovers in mid-air without assistance,

the sculpture is made of LEGO bricks, and in the video above shows you how to make one, if you do not have all of the parts in your kids LEGO set to make your own tensegrity sculpture, you can get the full parts list from the duo’s site, head to Instagram and YouTube to see more of their inventive models, I still think it is impossible, but there it is.
