Exploring sustainable cities with smart designs: PIXA is a flexible and modular structure
PIXA is a ?exible and modular tool or structure which can be easily assembled to create a tiny, large and largest structure by replication using a single unit. The Interior space of the steel structure is de?ned by two abstract natural elements “light and shades”.
The design is an experiment of light behaviour in space. The Organic Pixa sunbrella Fabric is the result of superposition between a translucent and opaque ripped common fabric. The modular Pixa fabric is the cover of the recycled steel structure. Not only used as a cover, the fabric is also de?ning a spatial disposal for each module, this is the ?exibility and the plasticity of the proposed design. The light steel structure is the boundary between indoor and outdoor spaces by creating semi-open and semi-closed spaces, while ?lter light and reinforced the presence of organic shadow on the ground.
