Interactive room for under fives

My idea for the under fives space in MOSI is to create a knitted/crocheted structure that can be changed around to form different shapes/purposes using hooks all over the walls of the under fives room . The brief was to make an interactive space for under 5 year olds. Taking inspiration from Toshikos crocheted playarea, the children will be able to climb on, climb under, sit on, sit under the structure making it very diverse. It could also be used to divide the room into two. To fit in with the museum and what it is about, the structure would be made from cotton linking to the history of the cotton industry in Manchester. Also linking to previous ideas from the Design festival brief and fitting with the MOSI groups ideas, I want to experiment with dying the cotton using natural dyes, keeping the design green and fitting with other peoples ideas from the group.
