Thoughts

The facade for my building, will be slightly covered with a transparent membrane.
The shiny silver material reduces the solar irradiation and transforms itself into a canopy of lights in the evening. The appearance of the pavilion changes through the transparency of the membrane, depending on the time of day and weather.

PERMEABILITY

INSPIRATION 2





GROUND FLOOR

DETAIL DESIGN: OUTDOOR TABLES

The shape of the design is aligned with the concept model.
The desired materials for this detail design is timber, aluminum. The timer is addressed to the table, chairs and stools. The artificial tree trunk is an aluminum post where the leaves are connected to the core creating shade below. The leaves will be created by aluminum composite panels.

It is an expression of art and how today as a society we try and compensate/adjust the environment to what we want without the hassle of maintenance.

The natural colours from the timber still provides that natural aspect of trees whilst the tree itself is for shading/visual purposes.
