BIG was approached by Danish brewery TUBORG to design a mobile structure for Roskilde Festival 2016. Drawing inspiration from inflatable castles of childhood, SKUM (in English: FOAM) is a bubble-like cloud pavilion that is filled with air powered by two wind turbines.
The pavilion features a 120 m2 canopy for visitors to relax under its generous shade. Inflatable in just 7 minutes, its low-impact construction offers maximum visibility while incurring a minimal environmental foot print. Color-changing LED lights are programmed to illuminate the pavilion during the evenings, providing the warm glow of an enormous nightlight on the festival and museum grounds.
Since Roskilde Festival, SKUM appeared as a concert venue at the annual Chart Art Fair in the heart of Copenhagen, ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum and most recently at Burning Man 2022.
