Lime Plaster

The wall explores plaster forms nestled within intersecting bamboo poles and bamboo reinforcement held within the castings.

Bamboo poles frame white curved wall panels.

The wall explores the symbiotic potential of voluminous plaster forms nestled within both an outer layer of intersecting bamboo poles and a bamboo reinforcement held within the castings.

Nine-foot iron bamboo poles established the visual pattern for each panel. Molding plaster was cast onto a stretched rubber membrane over the poles inside custom rectangular formwork.
