Towering 7m high the inflatable Solivoid swept last years Australia's Interior Design Awards. The Monash University creation was designed as a temporary coffee lounge for use at trade exhibitions. It provides a space for visitors to wait, while they also inadvertently generate multimedia patterns projected on its surface.
Interior Architecture lecturer Mr Darragh O'Brien said the project was an experiment that attempted to reconcile the ideal with the real. "It is a deliberate exercise in vagueness, reflecting the ambiguous nature of an evolving design process… In response to the contextual environment, occupants of the lounge will be suspended between inside and outside; between here and there; between matter and information.”
