It is a successful result of a competition for master's students in architecture and design at Chalmers University of Technology. The winning proposal was made by Riboverken, which was the main sponsor and also contributed knowledge about materials and manufacturing technology. The pavilion has a parametric design and is made of 133 precision-cut parts in two millimeter thick stainless steel sheet. All parts are rolled and held together by 140 sheet metal couplings, 1,535 joints and 3,640 bolts. The total length of laser-cut edges is just over 1.1 kilometers. Archipelago, with its soft shapes, is an obvious meeting place. It is adorned with lots of laser cut perforations where the light filters down.
