My first idea started with the concept of DNA. You can see part of my process in the sketch above. Through trial and error I figured out that this structure was both too literal and not sturdy enough. I still liked the spiral effect as well as the curved pieces. The next thing I tried was making a module using two paper pieces in the spiral curved shape and attaching them horisontally with two skewers. I would then repeat this module by stacking five more on top of that and rotating them sixty degrees each new module so that together the modules spiraled. What bothered me about this iteration was that the peaks of the paper pieces did not line up with the skewers therefore did not look unified enough for me.
To fix this i tried making the module longer by using four peices in each and all together hiding the sticks. This caused me to only have three stacks and it did not look strong enough and did not spiral enough with only three.
I finally concluded at the spirally shape in the picture above. I evenly folded creases in the paper and when connecting the tubes I lined up the creases in the paper. I spiralled the tubes up and down and made the skewers the support for m structure. I evenly and neatly glued the skewers to the tube pieces parallel to the table surface. I also tried to make them parallel to eachother. I used one skewer in each tube piece.
