The computer-generated structure consists of several folded components that are all unique in their dimensions, but based on the same geometric template.

Using piezo sensors we turned the installation into an interactive playground, featuring a touch-sensitive Ping-Pong table that changed the lighting each time the ball hit the surface, five tetherball sets that lit up when played with, and a scaled model working as a large urban loudspeaker sending vibrations through anyone touching the surface of the colorful boxes.

Consisting of several uniquely shaped pyramid components the prototyping phase for this pavilion is extremely important as we need to ensure that all wood elements can be assembled in short time and that they can be easily fitted to the pavilion’s steel structure.

During the last couple of weeks we’ve converted the old smithy at Gabriel Business Park to a creative laboratory that supports both our computer-based design process as well as our intensive focus on the implementation of physical prototypes.
