Find something that inflates: PIPELINE by DOSIS
PIPELINE is a reconfigurable ultralight pneumatic structure created by DOSIS as a nomadic architecture that instantly activates the territory. Its first use took place in Paris in February 2020 to house the KENZO FW-20 show. Today it inhabits the world allowing distinct uses in scattered places.

PIPELINE is a living structure that practices the situationist derive, moving around the world without a pre-established destination. It also shares the transformable quality with the KENZO FW20collection. As in previous DOSIS works - the studio founded by Isabel Collado and Ignacio Peydro in 2006 - the structure they have created is reconfigurable and transformable. It dynamically adapts to every situation and every location. It is a living structure that transmutes depending on the conditions of the ecosystem that hosts it.
