ABOUT

Chris Bosse was asked, while Associate Architect at PTW, to design a special event structure for the French champagne brand at Australia’s premier horse race.

Based on his long studies of lightweight structures and minimal surfaces he applied the following process: a computer-model, based on the simulation of complexity in naturally evolving systems, fed directly into a production line of sail-making software and digital manufacturing for this pavilion. This resulted in the efficient generation of space out of lightweight material. A perforated ceiling filtered natural light, creating a sparkling and surreal atmosphere.
