‘graph’ by rintala eggertsson architects was developed for the ‘crossing: dialogues for emergency architecture exhibition held at NAMOC (national art museum of china).

their concept was based on modular building blocks made from laminated wood with a textile cover that provides insulation and waterproofing. these structures are easily transportable and lightweight, allowing them to be easily assembled in disaster stricken areas.
