About The Forum Pavilioni
Forum ndi pavilioni yopangidwa ngati malo ochitira misonkhano, mapulogalamu a anthu onse ndi zaluso. Nyumbayi imagwira ntchito ngati siteji, chinsalu chowonetsera ndi mbali yakumbuyo, kotero malowa amatha kusinthidwa kuti agwiritsidwe ntchito m'njira zosiyanasiyana. Kamangidwe kake ndi maonekedwe akunja zagwirizanitsidwa mu chilankhulo chimodzi cha malo osalala oyenda bwino opangidwa ndi aluminiyamu ya mtundu wapamwamba wogwiritsidwa ntchito m'ndege za mumlengalenga. Mapanelo makumi asanu ndi limodzi ndi asanu ndi limodzi apadera anaumbidwa pogwiritsa ntchito njira ya digito youmbira zitsulo zopyapyala, popanda zida zapadera kapena zoumbira, mu maola osakwana khumi ndi awiri. Zotsatira zake ndi nyumba yaikulu, yopepuka komanso yopangidwa ndi zigawo zosiyanasiyana yomwe imapangidwa mwachangu ndipo imatha kusonkhanitsidwa ndi zida wamba zamanja.

About the Mphoto ya Golide ya A' Design Award
The Forum Pavilioni ndi mmodzi mwa opambana a Mphoto ya Golide ya A' Design Award, kuzindikirika kolemekezeka kwambiri komwe kumaperekedwa kwa mapangidwe a pamwamba, odabwitsa ndi odziwika. Opambana a Golide ndi zolengedwa zatsopano kwambiri, zoona patali ndi zonyezimira zomwe zimaonetsa luntha, nzeru ndi luso la opanga awo. The Forum Pavilioni akuyembekezeka kukhala chopangidwa chotamandidwa kwambiri, chokhazikitsa zochitika ndi chachikulu chomwe chimabweretsa phindu losawonekapo kale. Mapangidwe opambana Mphoto ya Golide ya A' Design Award awa ndi ntchito yodabwitsa, yolemekezeka yomwe imapindulitsa kwambiri ndi kukulitsa malire a luso, sayansi, kapangidwe ndi ukadaulo. The Forum Pavilioni amabweretsa zilakolako zamphamvu, kudzutsa chidwi, kulimbikitsa luso lolenga ndi kutikopa.

- 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
- Tags
- 3D printed, digital manufacturing, parametric modeling,sheet metal forming
- 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.
