StoreHouse

Client:   Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum

Completion Date:  2003, National Design Triennial

Constructed as a mass-customized modular unit and built from titanium with scrim/fabric-clad wings, StoreHouse displays architectural models and drawings in an intricate system of hard and soft materials. The wings’ armature is randomly punctured with shadowbox shelves, creating depth so that each project displayed is uniquely perceived. The base acts both as an anchor and seating bench, unfolding, rolling, and adapting to provide solace for museum visitors.
