The project

While designing a new range of display stands for the Matarranya region, Archicercle developed Clipcercle: a quick-assembly system focused on the connection between cylindrical rods and flat MDF components.

The studio’s contribution covers the design of the display stands and the development of this jointing system. Clipcercle grew out of a specific construction challenge within the wider design: how to connect the two types of component using a quick-assembly solution.

The flat components feature slots and notches, with geometries repeated across several parts. A cylindrical rod is connected to one of the pieces, making the relationship between the linear element and the panel clear.

This case study focuses on the development of the Clipcercle system. In the August 2015 post, the full display stands and their first prototype were announced as a later reveal.
