RADICAL NOTHINGNESS. Airmesh is the world's first fully-functional space frame structure made of 3D-Printed components in stainless-steel, advancing a new era of highly resource-efficient designs and unprecedented lightweight architecture. This entire digitally designed and fabrication process minimises wastage in construction, increases structural efficiency and creates a positive impact in sustainability, leading to a radical aesthetic of nothingness. Nested in the Gardens by the Bay, the pavilion demonstrates the technological advancement that has been achieved in developing a seamless and highly functional digital chain that opens up new potentials for architectural practice, and also demonstrates the efficient use of material that can be seen as signum of a sustainable design of the future.
