POP-UP SPACE
Workshop by OK-RM
Part of a series of workshops for Changing Urban Environment, Moscow, Russia, 09-13 July 2012
The workshop was about creating scenarios and elements for a series of pop up events. We were given a testing ground (the remaining foundations of a building with a bridge built above). We started from the building, thinking of the spaces that the rooms of a building create. From a blueprint of a house with movable outlines of rooms we went to a grid system. All the elements for the pop up event had to fit on the grid and be modular.
From there we developed a catalogue of furniture elements and structures. These objects can all be built from a combination of five basic elements and secured together by zip strips. This enables fast assembly and disassembly and can be performed by anyone.
The main idea behind the project is that by downloading the catalogue anyone can easily assemble a pop up space that fits their needs. All you need are wooden pallets, plywood boards cut to size and zip strips.
