# 2015 Silk Pavilion |
The Silk Pavilion explores the relationship between digital and biological fabrication on product and architectural scales. The primary structure was created of polygonal panels made of silk threads generated by a machine. Inspired by the silkworm’s ability to generate a 3D cocoon from a single silk thread, the overall geometry of the pavilion was created using an algorithm that assigns a single continuous thread across patches, providing various degrees of density.
