上海
An exterior precedent for a low-slung cultural pavilion utilizing stacked timber roof elements and slender supports to merge architecture with a wild grassland landscape.
- What we like about this project
- The roof elements step and overlap in stacked layers rather than forming a single continuous plane.

- Geometry
- Low-slung horizontal pavilion featuring overlapping, slightly curved timber louver roof planes supported by slender slanted steel columns.
- Facade system
- Full-height glass curtain wall set beneath a deep overhanging louvered timber roof.
- Structural guess
- Slender steel columns supporting primary timber beams and a secondary louvered roof deck.
- Spatial scale
- Single-story pavilion at a human scale, integrated intimately into the surrounding landscape.
- Lighting
- Soft, overcast daylight casting gentle shadows across the timber roof elements and tall grass.
- Atmosphere
- Quiet and contemplative, blending heavy timber textures with open landscape views.
- Environmental context
- Open rural or park setting surrounded by tall native grass, mature trees, and distant rolling hills under a hazy sky.
- Spatial experience
- The building sits low within the tall meadow grass, framing landscape views through transparent glass walls beneath a heavy timber canopy.
- Composition rhythm
- Repeating parallel timber beams forming a staggered canopy rhythm across the roofline.
