Recently awarded third prize in the Mobilizarte Mobile Cultural Structure competition, architecture firms FRENTES & PAX.ARQ have shared with us their proposal. Further images, a video and a lengthy narrative from the architects can be found after the jump.
CONCEPT: Transported by 2 containers and designed to be installed in 5 days, which are essential for an ephemeral and itinerant pavilion, our Mobile Cultural Mobilizarte consists primarily of 3 elements:MarksA set of scaffolding towers, lightweight temporary autonomous structures, which are easily assembled, very stable and adaptable to any kind of terrain. Mounted with different heights up to 10 m, their role is to define interior spaces, structuring floors and ramps as well as securing the cover. Their positions shall be defined according to the chosen installation site. Prism Measuring 15m high, built of scaffolding, consisting of four pavements whose floors are sustained by inflatable beams, it is wrapped in a plastic waterproof canvas, besides being the vertical reference of the intervention, transforming the spaces according to its position, like a large panel, it has the function of sheltering areas of technical collection and general storage, also serving as a film projection screen.
