The Loopcamp by Malka Architecture is a musical shelter composed of multiple cylindrical forms. The circular architectural piece is a minimalist and modern take on ethnic shelters built in dry desert regions all over the world.
The art installation is constructed of countless paper pipes, each a different length and width. Showcased at the Burning Man Festival, the piece by architect Stephane Malka is meant to resemble a spontaneous city that encourages a community of individuals to come together as one.
The Loopcamp by Malka Architecture is a musical shelter that creates sound with the help of wind energy. As winds grow stronger, the structure's many cylindrical tubes allow for a spectrum of changing sounds joined to form an ambiguous melody.
