As part of the second edition of Pico Zen Festival, Colectivo Warehouse, in collaboration with Terrapalha studio, were invited to design and build a temporary structure that would accommodate the main activities of the festival.
The project’s premises were clear from the start, in resume the main goal was to create a structure that had the least possible environmental and local impact, minimizing the use of external resources. In this way the design response was to use local labor, materials and techniques.
Bamboo tree, as an invasive species on the island, was an obvious choice for the structure, aligning with the use of local fishing ropes and mooring techniques for tensioning and structural bonding.
