Flexible timber forming system
Dukta is a timber forming system that uses precise incisions to impart flexibility. Developed by Christian Kuhn and Serge Lunin, the method allows stiff wood panels to be easily shaped in three dimensions. The near rubbery flexibility is achieved with staggered, regularly arranged incisions. Different cutting options expand the scope of possible applications, and the simple method is suitable for various wood products such as plywood, fiberboard, and solid wood. The process may also be applied to plastics and metals with similar effects.
