two gently sweeping curved planes form a sheltered internal volume, which provides a raised seating area through a crescent shaped bench. a single tree rises through the design, puncturing the floor and roof surfaces, further establishing the project’s close relationship with nature.

the planes are delicately joined at each of the structure’s four corners, evoking a sense of weightlessness integral to the pavilion’s composition.

a few more photos would have been nice
Nice. It remembers me of my childhood. The feeling you had while sitting in your own built tent made of blankets.
what material is the structure made of
Incredibly nice with extremely vibrant feeling of the nature itself.
We really need some people in there to understand this thing… the scale could be something incredible, or something that just makes everyone uncomfortable. But we can’t tell—as shown it’s just a sculpture, with no human interaction.
Nice – but wheres the storage?
I’d like to know, too, what material was used to make it.
Scale! It looks super uncomfortable underneath there!
