The helium space is a temporary installation at the University of Texas at Austin. This cloud shaped pavilion is formed by a huge floating curtain supported by helium balloons. The purpose of the helium space project is to build a temporary, dramatic public space.

Choose helium space projects from more than 160 schemes in international competition. The helium space forms part of the curtain, and is installed, exhibited and published at multiple sites. Sponsored the Center to explore contemporary art and architecture using fabrics for American Architectural Design (CAAD). The installation and exhibition will be held on the university campus from October 14 to 18, 2013.

The helium society is partly funded by computer-aided design. We donated 100% of our time and used Kickstarter to improve the rest of the material budget. We are really happy with this project and need your help to do this! In today's social media and digital relationship, physical relationship and experience are less. However, innovation is often the product of collaboration and accidental encounter. College campuses foster such physical interactions. The University of Texas at Austin is a human society, gathering from all over the world to share ideas and challenge practices. We propose to use the power of this community by creating an unexpected public space.

The curtain is typically male, suspended, stretched, or draped from a physically rigid support structure. By using helium balloons, the structure and curtain are a seamless and symbiotic form. The big screen, a canvas social activity, reflects the color and quality of its participants and environment. The proposed white translucent fabric provides a dramatic transition from day to night. Milky white liquid, curtain glistening and reflecting sunlight, gently swaying sculpture form. At night, light from below, its dramatic presence invites imagination.
