We're told Miles is a long time Oregami enthusiast. Miles had noticed how Oregami inspired designs were being used for medical and emergency applications. After seeing the California wildfires, he wondered if the folds could improve deployable disaster shelters. He ran one hundred and eight trials using fifty four variations of materials and fold angles.
