Pepenafest

Mexico city, Mexico

2010

As part of a festival planned for the base of Mexico City to promote awareness of reuse of materials, the coordinators planned a temporary structure based scaffolds which divided into different areas assigned to young architectural offices with the slogan that could be assembled by unskilled personnel using materials reuse. The proposal for the workshops and seminars on the third floor used PET bottles with rubber bands tied in two simple ways. The first is the system of modules that are added to form the perimeter wall. The arrangement of the bottle caps can be used to write messages with regard to reuse. The second wall weaves a lattice of hexagons separating each workshop. The light passing through the bottles are scattered strangely lit creating a space with no shadows.
