Top view and section

The right and left top picture show the shape and dimensions of the pavilion. The bottom left picture is a rendered section and the bottom right picture shows the line the columns follow to create the shape. The way the structure is designed makes it possible to easily create a different shape for the bubble depending on the context and milieu. It could be made into a square or an oval shape if desired.

Pavilion and Patio

The top right and bottom left pictures show how the structure sits on the patio given in the competition. The roof is made out of steel with a coating that gives the outer surface resistance to weather. In time the pavilion gains a touch of verdigris which amplifies the sincere usage of materials. The metal parts which joins the wooden columns to the roof are made of stainless steel for the sake of structural endurance. (Made with Blender and Krita)

Wooden columns

The structure consists of 29 wooden columns with various heights. The height is defined by the straight sections of the columns that joins the bent upper and lower parts. The bent wooden parts of the columns are identical with a 45 degree rotation. Overall there are a total of 58 pieces of the bent wooden components. The upper and lower parts are placed in a way that it gives the column a kind of a rotating visual expression. Since all of the columns are oriented in the same way the structure forms a wooden curtain that "opens up" to the given direction. (Made with Blender and Krita)

Budget sheet

Estimated cost of construction is $1563 for the raw materials. The wooden parts, metal components, foundation and roof need processing for the final structure.
