Deployable Pop-Up Gallery
A pop-up gallery is a kinetic system which is designed to be deployable, lightweight and transportable. This system is attached with a mechanism which controls its movement, and makes the system feasible to operate. This project focuses on a site-specific design, in Naggar, Himachal Pradesh catering to the lack of exhibition spaces in the area and also to support a budding artist residency.
Design Exploration
To design the deployable structure with the appropriate height and width ratio so as to get a proper exhibition space inside for an art gallery. The aim is to reduce the size of the structure as much as 30% after deploying it for easy transportation in the hill region.
