Timber Fan most important show project at Shanghai Design Week
Timber Fan, the Assemblages Design Build Intensive Studio project was exhibited at Shanghai Design Week this fall and was chosen by the UNESCO Creative City Organization as the most important show project.
This installation was the final project from a design-fabricate studio taught at UBC to students of Southeast University and University of British Columbia in Summer 2014. The course was taught by AnnaLisa Meyboom (Asst Prof UBC SALA), Blair Satterfield (Asst Prof UBC SALA) in collaboration with Han Xiaofeng (Assoc Prof SEU), Zhu Lei (Assoc Prof SEU), Bao Li (Associate. Prof).
This studio is part of a greater effort to re-introduce Chinese designers to the use of wood, a renewable and highly sustainable building material.
