As a custom at the Hochschule Anhalt, a pavilion designed by four students, Michelle C. C Yin, Chee C. Leong, Wan L. Pau and Xiao. Lee, was the innovative structure that exhibited 12 parametrically designed jewelry pieces during the 2017 year-end campus festival. This design was originally inspired by a sea urchin however, with the application of structure and workability its form was translated to the exhibited Hex-316 we now see. At the end of the semester, this became the winning pavilion due to being the most suitable design, meeting the requirements of a structure that could be easily assembled and disassembled and of economic materiality. It was designed concentrically on site with a cantilevered entrance and was stationed at one of the entrances to building 8 on the university’s campus. more about the project please visit : http://dia-live.com/18/work/dia-pavilion-hex-316/

The cells are built from 6mm thick corrugated cardboard. All the cells consist of two components – the facing and the framing. These cells were assigned with individual coding and printed as templates for the construction. The cardboards were cut, scored and folded accordingly to create these cells and then bolted together into 8 sections and assembled on site.
