pavillion

Project idea

This pavilion is inspired by mountains, but shown in a modern, broken-up way. The steel structure looks like sharp mountain peaks and rocks. The acrylic sheets look like ice, clouds, or light moving around the mountains. The design doesn’t copy real mountains it shows their feeling through strong shapes, layers, and light.

Project description

ACCESS & FORM The pavilion features three ramps, each leading to a different entrance, emphasizing movement and discovery. The main ramp, distinguished by its blue handrail, reflects the pavilion’s conceptual roots—the experience of climbing a mountain. This ascending journey mirrors the deconstructive form of the pavilion, where solid sheets and acrylic panels create a dynamic play of shadows and light, evoking the ever-changing atmosphere of mountainous terrain. The fractured geometry and layered materials amplify the sense of elevation and immersion in a modern, abstract interpretation of nature’s peaks.
