Luna
Barcelona, 2018“Luna” is inserted into a festive environment. Where the corporal, sensitive, and improvised predominates. Luna is halfway an ephemeral architecture, an assembly technology, an animal, and a meeting place.
A golden figure, 4 meters high, serves as a support for a series of devices that allow both thermal regulation and lighting regulation of the annual meeting, this year in party format, known as a “General Rehearsal” promoted by the FAD.
The structure, composed of wooden sections vertical and horizontal assembled together, allows both storage of devices inside, like external colonization. So Luna is the result of the union of 5 environmental modification technologies in a single element:
+ 6 smoke cannons housed in the interior and connected to the exterior through small holes, in charge of “densifying” the atmosphere of the party.
+ 2 external fans responsible for circulating the smoke.
+ External water conduction around the figure with misting mouths to lower the temperature of the room by increasing humidity.
+ Exterior reinvestment using a golden thermal blanket for the play of reflections with the light sources.
+ Structure elevation on three legs to generate a space that can be appropriated by users through cushions and flowers.
“Luna” blurs form, technology, and performance for the benefit of the creation of changing atmospheric conditions. “Luna” is material and immaterial at the same time. “Luna” is an architecture for a perfect party.
