Pixarium is a semi-permanent pavilion that is based upon the direct
connection between infinite digital design possibilities and the final
physical modular scenarios. It can be assembled and disassembled in
less than 24 hrs. The design of the pixelated space was made with ParaCloud GEM and Excel.

Taking the CNC technology as a do it yourself approach allows us to
assemble different topologies of the pavilion with pixel matrix on the
one hand and shaping each and every pixel according to a function need
on the other hand.
Each scenario freezes the architecture and turns it into a frozen
music (building with numbers / music notes). Dynamic changing
components give the freedom to arrange the pavilion to different
challenges in the future. All these endless designs are achieved with
simple rules and building technique. The three scenarios of the
Exhibition space / formal presentation space / informal gathering
space are just a drop in the ocean of the other possibilities of this
pavilion, letting it be relevant for years to come.

The strength of this pavilion is the use of an open source approach
that supports creativity together with mobility, rapidly manufacturing
and installing techniques. Social interaction can occur in the space
inside and outside the pavilion. All the components can be transported
and stored in flat plates on a minimal space.
