the big box is a mobile event space. it is built within a recycled freight container and can therefore be hauled by a standard truck rig and set-up at an event location within a few minutes. thanks to a flexible furniture system fixed to one single pole, the container can be easily converted from a bar to an exhibition place, from a ticket booth to a lounge or even host a small performance. the aesthetic purity of the interior is meant to contrast the roughness of the industrial exterior.
