À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ

Course: AE 125 - Structural Design Studio
Spring term (1B)

Students are to design a structurally ambitious park pavilion that provides shelter from sun and rain. Situated within the À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Park master plan, the structure must reflect and represent the À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ community. The proposed designs examine and respond to site-specific conditions, with the goal of providing space for public gathering and community events. The pavilion must reflect a clear purpose in its proposed location.

1B student example: "Park Pavilion"

The pavilion aims to provide park goers a new destination and encourage a communal park experience by bringing people together. The structure contrasts ideas of movement and rest, acting as a ramp to transport people up a hill. The outer spiral connects a picnic area, while the sheltered interior transforms into an amphitheatre. Located in the centre of À¶Ý®ÊÓƵ Park, it integrates itself into the elevated landscape. Composed of concrete, the new landmark contrasts its dark green natural surroundings.
