About The Forum 파빌리온

포럼(The Forum)은 모임, 공공 프로그램, 예술 활동을 위한 공간으로 설계된 파빌리온이다. 이 구조물은 무대이자 스크린이며 배경으로 기능하여, 공간을 다양한 용도에 맞게 유연하게 활용할 수 있다. 구조와 파사드는 항공우주 등급 알루미늄으로 제작된 유려한 곡면이라는 하나의 조형 언어로 통합되었다. 66개의 각기 다른 패널은 별도의 금형이나 툴링 없이 디지털 판재 성형 기술을 통해 12시간 이내에 성형되었다. 그 결과 대형이면서도 경량이며 모듈화된 구조물이 탄생했으며, 이는 신속한 생산이 가능하고 기본적인 수공구만으로도 조립할 수 있다.

Unique Properties
The Forum will be a stage, a screen, an instrument, and a backdrop, creating space that can be transformed through its use as a venue for convening, public programming, and the arts, fostering a sense of community and encouraging social interaction and engagement. Forum is a prototype for a new way of using new digital sheet metal forming technologies to create large scale, lightweight structures that are easy to produce and quick to assemble.
Dimensions & Packaging
12700mm x 5700mm x 3100mm

Production Technology
The design was created in Rhino and Grasshopper with special attention given to design capabilities and constraints of the manufacturing process. Figur digital sheet forming technology was used to create each unique panel without any tooling or dies. Average time to form each aluminum component was approximately 10 minutes. The structure and façade are unified into one language of fluid surfaces composed of aerospace grade aluminum. 66 unique panels create both structure and form, created using digital sheet forming machinery in under 12 hours.
Design Challenge
The goal of the project was to create a new language of construction utilizing a state for the art manufacturing method. Designing and constructing a large scale installation that was lightweight, structurally sound and easy to assemble with basic hand tools were all goals of the project. The modular nature of the construction and ability of the manufacturing method to adapt to unique shapes allowed the creation of a unique modular structure.
Research
The team was deeply interested in the physical manifestation of objects - how they’re conceived, designed, and the craft of making. The tectonics of an object are a direct reflection and representation of how they are used and what they can achieve. It is with this understanding that we will rehearse new modes of manufacturing, assemblage and organization
Inspiration
The Forum design and structure was inspired by construction and assembly methods not typically found in architecture and the built environment. Specifically in aerospace and automotive manufacturing, sheet metal often has multifunction utilization. By using a single material to perform the tasks of structure, enclosure, and design we are able to create a cohesive and efficient object that becomes a blueprint for a new and unique method of construction.
Project Duration
The project was first exhibited in Chicago during the Chicago Architectural Biennial in 2023. It is currently being reassembled in its permanent home in a gallery space in Chicago.
