It was the first edition of the Biennale of Architecture held in Chicago.

Our study was invited for the contest design a pavilion that would be placed on the shores of
Lake Michigan.

It is a micro space that serves as a kiosk for selling soft drinks, bike rental, sale of newspapers,
etc. In turn this Kiosko should be a piece of art and inspiration when it was closed.

As we say in our design philosophy we want to mix culture and nature with technology.

We use the form of one of the shells we can find the lake shore and within introduce the program.
We apply “smart technology” and apply motion sensors and LED lights.

The wind makes the move motion sensors, which are connected to a system of LED lights.
This system is programmed to vary the speed according to the wind, the LEDs change color.

Thus, being distributed kiosks along the beaches of Lake Michigan, as we go walking and depending
on the wind, kiosks will change the color.

We will develop an application for smart phones which we will access when we want to go to
the beach and see if it is a great wind day.
