P.S.1 2010 entry: LUX NOVA by EASTON+COMBS. We continue featuring the proposals for this years P.S.1 summer installation competition (awarded to SO-IL, read our full coverage of the PS1 competitions here). This time we introduce you EASTON+COMBS, a practice ran by partners Rona Easton and Lonn Combs. The firm has a focus on material innovation, which could be seen at LUX NOVA, their proposal for the P.S.1, which includes “Strong Light”, a 100 percent recyclable and exceptionally strong featherweight building component. The initial system is developed as a permeable featherlight structural skin that engages an environmental play of translucent and polychromatic effect. The system offers an 80% weight reduction over an equivalent glass system with no compromise in strength and stability at a significantly lower cost.

Swoosh Pavilion at the Architectural Association. Second and third year architecture students at the Architectural Association school in London have completed this year's AA Summer Pavilion, called the Swoosh Pavilion.
The structure is located outside the AA in Bedford Square and coincides with the London Festival of Architecture, which runs until this weekend. In what is turning out to be something of a glut of pavilions, Swoosh joins the [c]space Pavilion (above), which is also located in Bedford Square. See our previous story for more info about this one. Photographs by Richard Green.

Architecture students Wing Yi Hui and Lap Ming Wong of the Oslo School of Architecture and Design have completed a domed latticed pavilion as part of a performance-oriented design project.
The pavilion is made up of several laminated strips of wood that have been bent in the middle and joined together, forming a diamond-shaped lattice-work. Adding moisture to the thin wooden elements resulted in them curving across the grain, thus increasing their structural capacity. Update: Pole Dance / SO-IL, by Iwan Baan. Lightwave / AnL Studio. The Parklands, South Bank, Brisbane, Australia, has played host to Lightwave, a sensory light installation at the Unlimited festival. At 10m x 16m x 5.5m, Lightwave is not just a sculpture or an art piece, but an object that can be interacted with, like a large animated toy or hybrid living creature—glowing and pulsing by the river.
