Strandbeest Evolution

Written by

in

Strandbeests are massive wind-powered, kinetic structures, designed to roam Dutch beaches.

The key to the Strandbeest's locomotion is a linkage system that turns a small motion into a mostly flat foot path, which helps stabilize the beest.

The Strandbeest's long, flat foot helps it maintain contact with the sand without getting bogged down in it.
