As shown in Figure 1, there is a morphable structure 1 including at least one elongate flexible component 2 having a first end with an securing part 3 for securing said flexible component to a support 5 and a second end 4 forming a tip for the flexible component, the flexible component member having one or more bend-twist couplings and attachment members along its length to allow the flexible component to attach to a covering skin 9 that provides a profile for said flexible component which can bend and twist by way of the one or more bend-twist couplings thereby allowing for changing of the profile of the morphable structure.
