FREI OTTO’S LEGACY IN SAUDI ARABIA

Exhibition design

2020 / Jeddah, KSA

in collaboration with Lukas Bessai and Marcel Schaaf




In the scope of 21,39 Jeddah Arts Festival we designed a special presentation documenting the pioneering work in biomimicry and adaptability of Pritzker Architecture Prize winner Frei Otto (1925–2015). Based on his interest in capturing natural forms, the archive material finds itself on such an organic shaped table with niches and corners that encourage visitors to immerse oneself in and explore.
