Dymaxion Folding Globe
Areaware
Description:
In 1954, Buckminster Fuller patented the Dymaxion Projection, a map of Earth which presents geographic information without breaks in any of the continental contours, or any visible distortion of the relative shapes or sizes of the land masses. Designer Brendan Ravenhill has configured Fullers projection as a magnetic folding globe, a representation of Earth that easily transitions from flat to three dimensional. Fold it to form a geometric globe or unfold to reveal our flattened planet.
