ABSTRACT |The Dragon Skin Pavilion was a proposal for an architectural art installation that explored the spatial, tactile, and material possibilities offered today by revolutions in digital fabrication and manufacturing technology. It inspired passers-by to revaluate and reimagine what defines the space we live in today if tomorrow’s technologies were combined with industries of the past. The installation was a highly experimental temporary structure, designed from 163 unique pieces of post-formable plywood, a new environmentally friendly material.
