Adding to the chaotic aesthetic are the panels’ sheet metal surface that reflect surrounding art works and visitors and the refractive properties of the Folded Tube Tables formed from single sheets of polycarbonate plastic. The panels are themselves a hybrid of material and function. They consist of an interior surface of MDO board, Polyurethane core, and an exterior of galvanised steel molded into one composite panel. Panels are structural and integrate a cam-lock that allow them to be quickly assembled using just a hex wrench.
In a life after the exhibition, Quick Lock Panels, which are reusable and have excellent insulation properties, are reassembled as low-cost classrooms in rural areas.
