The temporary structure is the first built component of thread + normaldesign`s winning design for the Africa Centre and the Southbank development on the Spier Estate. Using retired containers, the exhibition space features an expansive entrance hall and a sequence of three galleries punctuated by exterior courtyards. The containers are stacked to create thickened walls, with a majority of the exhibit mounted within the space created by those walls. A few select containers will be occupied for smaller installations such as sound and video.
