A pavilion precedent by Archermit featuring an organic, flared central column and extensive glazing over water, ideal for studies on nature-integrated public architecture.
- What we like about this project
- The central structural column splays outward so dramatically it mimics a natural tree canopy supporting the roof.

- Geometry
- Low-slung asymmetrical pavilion featuring a dramatic central bamboo-clad structural column that splays outward like a canopy, supporting a folded thin-profile roof.
- Facade system
- Full-height frameless glass curtain wall recessed beneath a wide overhanging roof.
- Structural guess
- Steel frame roof supported by a central laminated timber column tree structure.
- Spatial scale
- Single-story pavilion, human scale emphasized by seating and open glazing.
- Lighting
- Warm internal upward and downward lighting illuminating the central timber column and casting dramatic reflections on the surrounding pond.
- Atmosphere
- Serene and luminous, with warm interior light contrasting against the cool twilight garden.
- Environmental context
- Surrounded by dense bamboo groves and lush garden landscape with a water body at dusk.
- Spatial experience
- The pavilion sits directly over a reflecting pool, creating a seamless visual continuity between built structure and water reflection, glowing warmly against the twilight landscape.
- Composition rhythm
- Horizontal bands of roof and water frame the central vertical explosion of the flared timber column.
