View a Towering Installation in Spain Made of Silk<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Years of research into the structural potential of standard textiles transformed silk into a towering installation in Spain by Paloma Ca\u00f1izares Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Textiles are Transformed in the Silk Pavilion Installation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Paloma Ca\u00f1izares Office used AutoCAD to develop Silk Pavilion, a temporary installation unveiled last spring at the Conc\u00e9ntrico design festival in Logro\u00f1o, Spain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pavilion was formed from over a hundred yards of black silk that\u2019s typically used to make clothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fabric was draped over pleated molds, and then coated with resin, stiffening it enough for it to become a self-supporting structural panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
