NGV PAVILION
The pavilion is defined by boulder-like volumes that delaminate or flake into surfaces and unravel at their edges creating a balance between mass and filigree. Fibre-reinforced polymer prototypes for the pavilion have been developed through direct deposition robotic fabrication techniques.
This pavilion for the National Gallery of Victoria explores a complex systems approach to tectonics, where surface, structure and ornament emerge from the one system to create an intricate irreducible whole.
