The Redivider was an
architectural installation from architects Stride Treglown that challenged
visitors to explore emotions associated with social media, translating the
digital world into a physical experience.
The installation,
created for this year's London Festival of Architecture, consisted of a series
of movable panels within a timber frame, with no specific entrance or defined
route. Finding a path through the structure was down to individual choice, encountering
others was inevitable.
With Taylor
Maxwell's experience in timber products and construction, the team at Stride
Treglown approached us to consult and collaborate on the design of the 6.5 x
6.5m pavilion. Working closely with the project team, Taylor Maxwell was able
to assist with the supply and delivery of the glulam timber
frame, including all machining and detailing, from concept to completion within
just 6 weeks.
Glulam is fast
becoming the product of choice for innovative architects and timber framers
looking to push the boundaries of aesthetics and function.
The engineered
timber product offers enhanced stability and strength compared to traditional
building methods, with a variety of grades and finishes. Its' multi-layer,
laminate form resists deflection, making it well suited to large sections of
beams, pillars and curvilinear designs not achievable with single-piece
applications.
