Plasti(K) Pavilion / Marc Fornes/THEVERYMANY

Posted in Architecture - Pavilion by * FORMAKERS [ GM ] | Tags: Parametric, Computational, Pavilion, Architecture, Design

The Plasti(K) pavilion is yet another great piece of work by Marc Fornes (THEVERYMANY) that explores the emergent fields of computational design and digital fabrication.

The form of the Plasti(K) pavilion was generated via an iterative, algorithmically-driven design process.

It is built from 3,000 unique, non-repeating modules which were CNC milled from polyethylene sheets and then thermo-formed into the correct shape.

What is most interesting about the work of Marc Fornes is the rigorous research and process behind each piece which then becomes a physical representation of the complexities and possibilities of computation (in Kostas Terzidis' terms) in design.

For all those interested in these topics, THEVERYMANY's work is an absolute must see!.
