The Ornithopter 夢想實驗號
An aerial site precedent showing a playful, geometry-driven public art installation by HIR Studio, utilizing contrasting materials like white gravel, timber decking, and a red structure on green turf.
- What we like about this project
- The white gravel layout includes a long, needle-like tail pointing toward one corner of the triangular lawn like a compass or diagram.

- Geometry
- Strictly symmetrical layout featuring a triangular grass island containing a central circular clearing with an aligned linear pathway and a pointed pavilion pavilion structure.
- Structural guess
- Lightweight timber framing on a raised deck base.
- Spatial scale
- Park-scale installation; the central pavilion is small enough for a few people to occupy.
- Lighting
- Direct overhead daylight casting crisp, short shadows to the west of objects and structures.
- Atmosphere
- Clean, crisp, and diagrammatic under bright open skies.
- Environmental context
- A triangular lawn bounded by paved pedestrian walkways and dense green planting beds within a public park.
- Spatial experience
- The aerial view emphasizes pure geometric order, drawing the eye along the white gravel tail directly into the red framed pavilion.
- Composition rhythm
- Concentric and linear geometry radiating from the central red pavilion.

- Playful contemporary installation design
