Spatial Reciprocal Frames are three dimensional grids, consisting in a building system of mutually supporting beams. There are short beams, each others holding up and between connected with frinction only or with simple joins. A reciprocal frame structure can be constructed from identical or non-identical basic elements as long as a tessellation pattern exists.

Chidori system is based on a traditional Japanese toy.  The wood planks are connected through a joint system allowing them to stay together even without the use of nails or glue. Numerous combinations are possible for their assemblage, making it usable as a table, shelf, or even a wall.
