The pop-up shop is a modular system of vertical wood panels that support each other by resting on the end-points. The loads are transferred through these joints, which consist of concealed wood dowels and steel rods. All panels are made of oak and have the same dimension. Acrylic shelves fixed on top of the vertical panels and help stiffen the structure against lateral forces. The vertical panels themselves become panels onto which items could be fixed for an exhibition.
