This design is for a traveling exhibition of work by architect Emilio Ambasz that originated in Tokyo. Examples of his architecture and industrial and graphic designs were partitioned off by semi-translucent screens designed to suit any kind of gallery height and layout, reduce freight volume, and be assembled easily. Display panels were made of square paper tube frames and honeycombed screens. The frames are hinged to be folded flat, and the legs of the model stands are made of four types of paper tubes, each of different diameter making it possible for one leg to fit inside another, minimizing their volume in transit.
東京を起点に海外へ巡回した展覧会の会場構成。各地で誰もが簡単に組み立てることができるよう、角型紙管のフレームとハニカムスクリーンによりヒンジで折りたたむことができるパネルとしている。模型台の脚は直径の異なる4種類の紙管でつくり、輸送時には入れ子状にすることでその容積を減らしている。
