fala atelier: mesh
mesh is a temporary bar for a night event.
The 3x3x5m metal structure was given; the skin is defined by an overlay of metal meshes and plastic screens.
Light and color flow freely through the translucent materials, becoming a smooth cloud over the imposing geometry of the structure. From far, only the light is visible; while approaching the object, the thin silhouette and its texture reveal their rationality. The lightness of the construction allows the pavilion to be only a frame for the light it contains.
