Precedents I

At the start of the project everyone began to look at precedents and other cool projects that were made out of cardboard. Here are some..
Public Farm: Interactive Urban Gardening
This was an installation that was located outside of Ps1 Gallery run by MoMa. They used industrial sized cardboard tubing and created a system to hold the plants in them.

On the bottom it was more of a park setting with cardboard chairs holding plants and grass in them.

This installation was part of P.S. 1's ongoing annual YAP, Young Architects Program, which challenges architects to compete in designing a temporary structure to be installed every summer at the facility.

This installation was done at the same location as the urban garden. It was installed during the summer of 2000 and was built using stick frame construction. Its considered "blob-itecture" because of the different sectional quality every 4 inches.












Cardboard Room
This project was made out of cardboard sheets that were subtracted from to form this beautiful flowing room.
