EXPO CIRCULAR
with Certain Measures
Description
Steel members of the German Pavilion are digitally disassembled and reconstructed into new canopies for future use.  Discrete parts of the pavilion were modeled and simulated in Unity to flock between different design iterations while an interface showcased material being recalculated for re-use.

Through a close looking at a building’s constituent parts, the project considers the temporal nature of expos as an opportunity to rethink impermanent venues as not single-use spectacles but rather a parade of permutations that go on indefinitely.
