- 'Inflatable Inspirations' is a detailed survey of interesting infatable projects. It consists of a visual survey, a survey of innovative inflatable experts and materials and theory about what makes an inflatable alive (on body and architectural scale) 
  
-This survey has been conducted in books, online and other sources, partly resting on previous experience with and interest in inflated projects. This survey can be interesting to all those working or willing to work with inflatable constructions, media, food or other inflated things. 
  
-There are some books and magazines about inflated projects but these mostly limit themselves to a survey of inflatable architecture or inflated art-objects and design. My survey will include many different inflated things which have an inflated nature such as: 
  
-    * 
-      nature 
-    * 
-      architecture 
-    * 
-      design 
-    * 
-      art 
-    * 
-      food 
-    * 
-      fashion 
-    * 
-      technology and science 
-    * 
-      Tensile Inflatables 
  
-there are a few material libraries in europe, but none have a section focused for inflatables+
