A collaboration across practice, education, craft and production now culminates in the "Generic bowl" being erected and exhibited in Copenhagen's City Hall Square. The project is being built in conjunction with the 500th anniversary of the Copenhagen Carpenters' Guild, where it will stand as a symbol of an innovative future for the carpentry trade and construction. From Monday 30 November to Friday 4 December, the project will be on display, being built by apprentice carpenters in collaboration with our architecture students. This way, the viewer can follow the project's creation and see how the construction frames are assembled. The Generic Bocelle is made possible by a number of partners; the Copenhagen Carpenters' Guild, KADK, KHR Architects, Fiberline composite and the Copenhagen Technical School.
The project is therefore unique in that it combines research and education with practice in architecture and crafts, and industry with the production of the composite material. Go and see the "generic bocelle".
