Exhibition setting for the Austrian Cultural Forum {ACF} New York. The topic of the exhibition is the phenomenon in Austria that young winemakers tend to contract contemporary, modern architects to redesign their wineries. This phenomenon has spread all over the important winemaking regions in Austria and furthermore, over the border to northern italy and hungary. This shift, from preconceived conventions of wineries to an contemporary approach is what inspired also our exhibition design that mirrors this notion. Furthermore the exhibition design is triggered by our research in organic modeling, and digital fabrication methods, as well as the search for a machinic sensibility. The exhibition design served as a proof of concept for the idea that the milling path of a CNC machine can be used to create a rippled surface. This rippled surface can increase the stability of the entire object.
The entire exhibition consists of a population of 43 entities of three different types. They can be combined in an extensive variety, making it possible to rearrange the exhibition to other exhibition spaces, without corrupting the exhibition design.
