This pavilion was designed for GIB® – a leading New Zealand provider of plasterboard surface coverings products. The ambition was simple – show off the beauty of raw plasterboard.

In expression, we created a structure of vertical leaves of plasterboard, unstopped and unpainted, which fan out in width to create a porous enclosure.

The trade stand as banal backdrop to a product pitch has been replaced by a beautiful, minimal folly that invites architects and designers to come inside and have a real conversation with GIB® about technical issues and design solutions.
