What happens when Architecture meets motion and movement? The Quaver is a design experiment reflecting on this notion. inspired by the works of Theo Jansen. Units made of thin wooden logs, moved by the energy and movement of sea-waves create a moving casing of Orłowskie Peer in Gdynia, Poland. It is a temporary construction, low carbon footprint is the project's second objective, it is also built from recyclable materials (eg. Wood Plastic Recycled Composite). The goal was to create an experience of being inside a living, ever-changing machine, propelled by nature, redefining architecture.
