Matter of Fact
Corrugated metal functions both as a two dimensional plane and a three dimensional object. Its positive surface on one side is its negative on the other.
Instantly recognisable as the 'Coca-Cola' of building materials, it is fundamentally abstract.
Designed for short term, pre-fabricated construction the undulating profile implies infinity, its matter of factness concealing a wealth of contradictions.
