Superstructure is an accessible scheme, and radiates the character of a snail's shell. A structure in which the visitors are invited, instead of challenged. The spiral has been made of sheet material, which has accurately been carved into wooden elements, using CNC milling techniques. The installation as a whole is about 7 by 11 meters wide
and 4,5 meters high, and can accommodate 60 to 120 people. The fair-visitors are drawn inside the space and will automatically circle to the central plaza, where meetings and presentations will take place.
