Project Description

This removable Pavilion is intended to display the results of the Escuela Superior de Diseño, in Murcia, at fairs and events. It is proposed as a synergistic dialogue between a natural material, such as rattan, and an artificial one, such as polyethylene, hence creating a faceted volume.

The outer skeleton is formed with the fibers of a climbing plant, a flexible and light material. In its formalization, a series of closed geometries of circular angles that rotate at their joints are defined, producing a gentle and moving armor.

Due to its structural qualities, this element by itself is not capable of creating a space since it does not have rigidity. In order to raise this corps, a translucent polyethylene inflated membrane with a thickness of 400 gauge is inserted inside of it. This inflatable element finds its fixation to the pavement thanks to the natural frame.

As a result, the artificial and the natural coexist to build an easily installable ephemeral environment that allows the generation of a closed space capable of hosting academic works in both closed and outdoor exhibitions.
