Bounce House for Adults: Blow-Up Bubble Strung with Nets

21 Nov

[ By Steph in Architecture & Public & Institutional. ]

Inflatable Bounce House for Adults 1

Admit it – you’re jealous of the little kids who get to romp in those inflatable bounce houses. Once we reach a certain age (or weight), we’re just not welcome in those primary-colored playgrounds any longer. But some lucky kids-at-heart got a chance to relive the fun of that experience with ‘Net Blow-Up,’ most recently installed near the waterfront in Yokohama by Croatian-Austrian design collective Numen/For Use.

The inflatable play structure looks like a big white bubble in its spot beside the water, glowing like a lantern once the sun goes down. Inside, it’s strung with multiple levels black netting that’s just stretch enough to climb, jump and flip to your heart’s desire.

Watching it from the outside might be almost as fun as bouncing around within it, as the soft-sided structure deforms and mutates with each movement of those inside. “The outer membrane acts both like a ‘soft box’ diffuser of the outside light, or a projection screen in case of inner illumination of the installation,” say the designers.

Inflatables are popular as temporary installations, since they’re so easy to install and take down. Plus, they tend to have a lighthearted, comical look. Two recent examples include the Bridge in Paris and the world’s first inflatable concert hall, the Ark Nova.

Strung Along: Twine Guides Visitors Through Abandonments

Acting as a minimalist and silent tour guide, lengths of black yarn were carefully suspended to direct guests along a route through the broken walls of a deserted series of tightly-packed structures in Beijing.

Crafted by reMIX Studio, the intervention was part of a pop-up restaurant experience in which the dinner space was placed at the end of a string of rooms in an abandoned building complex.

Reprising the same visual theme, ceiling-suspended lights in this dark dining room were suspended from thin black cord as well.

A modest wood-paneled path was constructed to thread the rubble and refuse of the structure, with parallel and intersecting spiderwebs of twine providing directional indications on the sides and above.

The direct trajectory was designed to take people through both interior and exterior spaces, small homes and their private courtyards. Bursting through walls, the journey exposes both the dwellings themselves and the materials of which they were made, giving visitors a unique perspective on the traditional dense Hutong neighborhoods of the city.

Of their work, the studio writes: “We propose a new connective path that reveals the existing building secrets and tunnelling throughout the architectural body it highlights in few observations points the quality and characteristics of the future intervention. The system of new portals is a succession of points of view that … forces the visitors into an unexpected journey; challenging [the] imagination.”
