Bryan has been working on this forever! Truly a labor of love. Neat to see it pop up here. He also does illustrations of homes around San Francisco (amongst other things), which I highly recommend checking out: https://www.instagram.com/bmacomber_art/

Such a beautifully done site. I might be in love already . Many kudos.
I dropped in a suggestion to do one on an umbrella. There's a lot going on in these. One can study the differential geometry of surfaces. The mechanism design of opening and closing.
I find both the spring ones (push button) and the ones without spring quite fascinating. In fact the ones without a spring has implicit ones imposed by the bending of the spokes.
