Sisal plants (A. sisalana L.) have quite strong fiber characteristics and if felting can provide good strength and flexibility. However, its use is still not optimized and only deals with the scope such as rigging. Indonesia itself also produces a lot of sisal fiber as much as 500 tons. Natural fibers can be sustainable with the structure of the transformable design mechanism which is something that is quite new for Indonesia, where this structure can change from one form to another, and is very potential with sisal fibers that can follow the form of the structure of the mechanism in a transformable design with flexibility and flexibility. strength of this sisal fiber. In this transformable design, it allows sisal fiber to change shape according to the structure that has been designed in a transformable design system which can produce an openclose system by utilizing a combination of a transformable design structure and the flexibility and strength that is fairly good from sisal fiber so as to produce a potential novelty in sisal fiber which can be applied to products such as curtains, night lights, and decorations.
