Project idea

The project explores the concept of a modular public pavilion designed for temporary and seasonal use within a camping environment. It aims to create a flexible architectural system that can adapt to changing functions, user flows, and events throughout the year, combining infrastructure, social space, and leisure activities within a single coherent structure.

Project description

The pavilion is organized as a two-level structure with a clear functional division. The ground floor contains the main public and service functions, including a reception area, waiting lounge, coworking space, and café, supporting both operational needs and visitors’ comfort.

The upper level is designed as an open and flexible terrace space, intended for seasonal events, informal gatherings, outdoor activities, and a bar with panoramic views. The spatial concept focuses on openness, adaptability, and the seamless transition between indoor and outdoor environments.

Technical information

The building is based on a lightweight steel frame structural system combined with sandwich panel cladding. This solution ensures fast assembly, modularity, and structural efficiency. The design allows for flexible spatial organization and potential reconfiguration depending on usage needs, making it suitable for temporary or seasonal deployment in outdoor contexts.
