The Weaving Pavillion is now completed at The Village, downtown Beijing, where it will be the main centre for the NOTCH 10 Art and Culture festival. It is the first weaved structure (no glue, screws or nails) to function as facade, roof, column and foundation.
‘life will kill you’ is a temporary sculpture installation by designers molly hunker and gregory corso.
the project was installed oat a hollywood clothing showroom earlier this year. the sculpture itself is
made from plastic zip ties which were chosen to contrast the clothing. the zip ties are connected
together to create a floating volume that sits right below and existing soffit. hunker and corso used
over 10,000 zip ties that are connected into a double sided mesh. the exterior is made from later
white zip ties while the inside is filled with smaller colourful ones.

Thaw investigates how to use textile concepts of tension and friction for tectonic structures of architectural scale. As a wall membrane, Thaw explores the making of a woven structure made of ash slats braced together by steel joints. Where most architectural structures work through principles of compression, Thaw is a tensile structure. As such Thaw is soft: it moves the forces through its woven field though frictive interconnectivity.
