Palendrome - The Pavilion

Gaurang Kaushik

CASE STUDY // PROTOTYPING

RESEARCH QUESTION

How can a pavilion using timber planar elements, designed with the aid of generative AI be developed to deliver a fabricatable idea with details, enabling real life development of the exploration and experimentation?

THE CHALLENGE

To build the pavilion as a prototype establishing a proof of concept and take fabrication

form following the phase model workflow, to actualize the idea into reality ?

FABRICATION DEVELOPMENT

1:10 SCALE PROTOTYPE
BUILDING
FABRICATED MODEL
JOINERY STRATEGY - ZIP TIE NOTCHES
ON CENTRES OF THE PLATES ADAPTING
TO THE TOLERANCE OF THE MATERIAL
FABRICATION IS ACHIEVED THROUGH ZIP TIE NOTCHING DONE TO 443 PANEL MEMBERS WITH 848 TIES WEAVED
1:1 SCALE PROTOTYPE
BUILDING
PLANAR JOINT COMPONENT
FABRICATION IS ACHIEVED THROUGH CUSTOM JOINERY DONE TO 40 PANEL MEMBERS WITH 76 CONNECTING PLATES BOLTED
CONCLUSION

" The approach offers a new domain of possibility in the coming time, I see the potential of
developing applications where the nature of rapid prototyping and experimentation is well
aided by tools and generative AI. This could make iterations comfortable and more efficient.
Thus a provocation…
