President*s Design Award 2020 - AirMesh Pavilion (Design of the Year)

Lead Designer & Company/Organisation: Professor Carlos Bañón, Architectural Intelligence Research, Lab (AIRLAB) @ Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD), Zhejiang University Sitting atop a grassy knoll at Gardens by the Bay, the AirMesh Pavilion lights up in the evenings like a gem – a shining example of what the future of construction could be. As one of the world’s first fully functional 3D printed space frame structures, the pavilion was optimally configured with 216 bars and 54 bespoke nodes manufactured using additive 3D printing. Such precise customisation was achieved through a fully digital workflow, which resulted in a shorter construction time and no material wastage. AirMesh Pavilion and the technology behind it put Singapore firmly at the forefront of global additive manufacturing of complex structures. The design’s overall congruence with nature helps to integrate the built and natural environments. The Jury feels strongly that design innovations of this kind are deserving of recognition and a P*DA.
