5 key facts about this project
The Berliner techno booth is situated in Berlin, a city known for its rich techno music culture. Functioning as a versatile space, the booth can host various events, including concerts and outdoor gatherings. The design concept is focused on portability and adaptability, blending practical use with an appealing aesthetic. It reflects the lively spirit of Berlin’s nightlife and musical scene.
Geometric Design
The booth's structure is based on a tetrahedron, a simple yet effective geometric shape. When laid out in a plane, it forms an equilateral triangle divided into four smaller triangles. This arrangement provides both stability and visual interest. The circles surrounding these triangles connect at their vertices, resulting in a structure that is not only sturdy but also engaging to look at. The geometric design reinforces the structure's ability to serve as a memorable focal point in any setting.
Materials and Structure
The Berliner booth employs a 210-denier high count nylon as its primary material. This textile is enhanced by a single-sided layer of pigmented polyurethane film, which ensures waterproofing and durability. Such material choices are vital for outdoor use, allowing the booth to withstand different weather conditions while maintaining its form and function. This attention to material performance is essential for the booth's success in various environments.
Sustainability and Functionality
Sustainability is integral to the booth’s design philosophy. Although it is created initially for techno events, the structure can adapt to other functions as the needs of the community evolve. Its lightweight and portable nature make it easy to transport and set up. This innovative approach reduces logistical challenges and helps lessen the impact on the environment, aligning with contemporary practices in architecture.
One notable detail is the air-inflated pneumatic structure, which adds an interesting tactile quality to the design. This feature invites interaction and engagement, enriching the experience for anyone who encounters the booth.
