架构师提供的文本描述。我们应Glocal设计杂志的邀请，为墨西哥城的一个设计和家具展览会设计了他们的展位。该展台的结构和材料是由拉丁美洲中密度纤维板的领先制造商Masisa赞助的，他要求该结构应展示其大量的成品，以此作为一种可能的材料样品。我们选择了两个颜色序列，一个从黑色到白色，包括一些木材纹理材料和另一个从深绿色到橙色。

Text description provided by the architects. We were invited by Glocal Design Magazine to design their exhibition booth for a design and furniture fair in Mexico City. The construction and material for the booth was sponsored by Masisa, the leading manufacturer of MDF panels in Latin America who requested that the structure should showcase a large range of their finishes as a way to sample the possibilities of the material. We chose two color sequences, one from black to white including some wood texture materials and the other one ranging from dark green to orange.

由于MDF面板不能弯曲来生成曲线，所以我们决定将它们作为一系列计划来使用，从而生成复杂曲面的虚拟形式，作为与数控路由器切割的面板模块所包含的正交盒中包含的体积的线框负值。当这些计划在空间的三个方向相交时，它们形成了一个书架网格，作为杂志和其他产品的展示和存储空间。

Since the MDF panels can’t be bent to generate curves we decided to use them as a sequence of plans that would generate the virtual form of a complex curved surface as the wireframe negative of the volume contained in a orthogonal box made by the module of the panels cut with a cnc router. When the plans intersect in the three directions of space they form a grid of shelves that serve as display and storage space for the magazines and other products.

整个展位都是一个休息的地方，参观者可以在那里坐下来阅读杂志，同时躲在一个包裹着的茧里，让他们远离周围的噪音、灯光和骚动。四个扭曲的元素同时充当长凳和存储空间。

The whole booth was intended as a resting station, where the visitors to the fair can take a seat and read the magazine while sheltered inside a wrapping cocoon that keeps them away from the surrounding noises, lights and agitation. Four twisted elements act both as benches and as storage space.

2011年5月26日至28日，全球本地设计站的170个部件首次在墨西哥城人居博览会上组装和展示，并将在今年余下的几个交易会上展出。一旦今年的展览周期结束，它将成为出版商办公室会议室的永久特色。

The 170 components of the Glocal Design Station where assembled and presented for the first time in Habitat Expo in Mexico City from 26th to the 28th of May 2011 and will be present in several other trade fairs for the rest of the year. Once this year’s exhibition cycle is over it will become a permanent feature of the meeting room of the publisher’s offices.
