Starting with a photo of a flattened banana peel, Cologne Institute for Architectural Design students Marc Over and Moritz Winkler created an enormous cardboard banana using Rhino for drafting and a Leica cutting plotter.

It was created for a course that focused the analysis and reconstruction of surfaces taught by Oliver Fritz and Hans Sachs.
