About Darwin Bucky Ko'rgazma Galereyasi

Baki - Bukminster Fuller tomonidan ishlab chiqilgan geodezik gumbazdan ilhomlangan, erga langarlangan parametrik gumbazli chodir. Tanklar 1 mm qalinlikdagi lazer bilan kesilgan egilgan metall plitalardan yasalgan va ustunlarsiz izolyatsiya qilingan joyni yaratish uchun bir-biriga bog'langan. Bucky klasterini yaratish uchun bir nechta Bucky bloklari ham bog'lanishi mumkin. Uni saqlash uchun bir necha kun ichida yig'ish yoki demontaj qilish mumkin va yuk konteyneri orqali tashish mumkin. Bakini butun dunyo bo'ylab olib yurish oson deb tasavvur qilingan. Baki - engil vaznli tuzilma. Uning tekis o'ram strukturasi metalldan iborat bo'lib, uni suv o'tkazmaydigan qiladi.

Unique Properties: Bucky is designed as a complete set of parts that can be assembled and disassembled if necessary at the site. It is a parametric dome tent anchored to the ground without a foundation. Bucky can be used as an exhibition gallery or a center for performance or a bar or a nightclub. The structure is a black box that provides a wide array of programs that could be decided by the tenant who rents by the day. It is designed to be placed in public gardens or exhibition grounds or even in a city square always permanently temporary provide the ground is flat.

Production Technology: The structure is made using 1mm mild steel spanning a massive 10 meters and 6 meters in height without beams or columns. The Avant grade joinery system makes the structure leakproof and conceals more than 70 percent of the 2800 bolts which is an impossible task to achieve for a component that has naked edges on all four sides as the panels need to be collapsible. The panel size can be easily handled by one person making the assembly extremely efficient.
Design Challenge: The challenge was to construct a typology that works for off-grid areas. The criteria to fit a 10meter span and 6meter height structure into a 6meter container was a difficult task since Bucky was envisioned to be easy to carry around the globe. Adding further, making an open system into a closed system was also a major challenge which was necessary to make the building as watertight as that would ruin the artworks. The windows are designed to have indirect lighting without having rainwater through the opening to protect the painting from any harsh environmental conditions.
Research: Bucky was designed with the aim of making a travelling gallery that can be transported anywhere in the world in a 6 meter shipping container. Origami was the basic methodology used to figure out the panel folding of the building and with the help of parametric tools the fabrication was done onsite. As a result Bucky was able to be fit in a container as well as convert itself into a huge 100 square meter gallery within a matter of days.
Inspiration: Bucky is inspired by Buckminster Fuller's geodesic dome. The project is envisioned to be a traveling gallery complemented by its aesthetic architecture for curators to exhibit their work anywhere in the world. One of the major inspirations was to create a gallery that it should be designed for repurposing and can be recycled or deconstructed to minimize unnecessary footprints.
Project Duration: Located in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. The project started in October 2019 and was made open to public in October 2021.
Operation Flow: Gallery is always perceived as a four walled box. Bucky transforms the way people experience galleries by making the building itself a part of the exhibition. People will interact the same way with the building as they interact with the exhibits inside it.
