Project

Transparent oyster

Year: 2023

Category: Public Architecture

Surrey is abundant in seafood, with oysters being one of them. The design draws inspiration from the natural form and structure of oysters, translating it into an architectural form to create a cityscape rich in regional characteristics. Metal support systems and ETFE membrane are used as the main materials for the pavilion. The translucent membrane creates a soft and mysterious interplay of light and shadow, creating an approachable and lightweight form. In addition to providing shelter, it is also hoped that users can lean against it, thereby generating a richer physical interaction between the pavilion and its users.
