Digital Rapresentation Course Designing an Interactive Pavillion for the University Park Appreciation of Vector Software, CAD Programs, Rendering and 3D modelling
29
The location of the pavilion was chosen to be placed along the park’s secondary path that is usually less frequented. The form was designed to complement the school’s main building across the field. The wooden structure, inspired by the classical cabin, maintains the transitory aspect the present pathway evokes. The steel cords supporting the suspended bench emphasize natural lighting, aeration and a light hearted feel one has when enjoying a lazy afternoon in the park.
