The Living Knitwork Pavilion project has been selected by The Architect's Newspaper in their 2024 Best of Design Awards, in the Temporary Installation category. 

The Living Knitwork Pavilion is a customized and modular textile shade structure consisting of 3D-knitted optically and electrically-active yarns that sense activities and dynamically change color and light up through the day and night. It was recently showcased at Burning Man in Black Rock City, Nevada (United States).  

This architectural piece was developed and built by a team of researchers from the MIT Media Lab and MIT School of Architecture and Planning, and led by Media Lab alum Irmandy Wicaksono.
