STAGE
nomination for the Mies van der Rohe award 2019
nomination for The European Prize for Urban Public Space
a summer pavilion in Dnipro, Ukraine
a prototype for a permanent structure
collaborative design
crowd-sourced construction
STAGE is an experimental public space, where anyone can organize an event for their friends. It has been build for the 4th edition of Construction festival - an independent art and music event.
The roof is a gigantic acoustic tube, similar to those in old gramophones. Anyone can attach their small source of sound (i.e. a smartphone or a small speaker) and instantly organize their own event.
The design is a prototype and we want the people of Dnipro to help us test it. In over 100 days we’ve deconstructed the prototype and started working on the brief for the permanent construction – STAGE 2.0.
