The ability of liquid interfaces to shape slender elastic structures provides powerful strategies to control the architecture of mechanical self assemblies. However, elastocapillarity-driven intelligent design remains unexplored in more complex architected liquids - such as foams. Here we propose a model system which combines an assembly of bubbles and a slender elastic structure. Arrangements of soap bubbles in confined environments form well-defined periodic structures, dictated by Plateau’s laws. We consider a 2D foam column formed in a container with square cross-section in which we introduce an elastomer ribbon, leading to architected structures whose geometry is guided by a competition between elasticity and capillarity. In this system, we quantify both experimentally and theoretically the equilibrium shapes, using X-ray micro-tomography and energy minimisation techniques. Beyond the understanding of the amplitude of the wavy elastic ribbon deformation, we provide a detailed analysis of the profile of the ribbon, and show that such setup can be used to grant a shape to a UV-curable composite slender structure, as a foam-forming technique suitable to miniaturisation. In more general terms, this work provides a stepping stone towards an improved understanding of the interactions between liquid foams and slender structures.
