16/CELLULAR SCREEN
The Cellular Screen started as a design investigation into
making CNC-fabricated structures bigger than the size of a
standard CNC bed and plywood. The result of this study was
this volumetric, lightweight modular partition, with an inter-
locking frame and infill panels. Carefully arranged to provide
visual privacy, the offset panels bounce reflected light
through the screen’s cells. When lit from behind by either
the sun or bright, indoor light, the Cellular Screen front will
actually glow!
