Marble Fairbanks Architects have produced an installation piece for MOMA that deserves some attention.
In Flatform, they researched three basic ideas, metal as the material, laser cutting as the technology, and folding as the means to manipulate the material. Working with these three ideas, Marble Fairbanks Architects constructed a piece without the use of any mechanical fasteners. There have been some excellent examples done in the past, but what is interesting to point out and different from other examples, is the cross section or anchoring/bridging of the folded metal between the two layers that are programmed to lock together in certain ways, to create stronger connection. Viewing between the layers, one gets to observe the double sided finish of the exterior folded stainless steel and the painted finish on the inside face. These effects become interesting when revealing the detail within the connection, please take the time to browse through.
