art pavillon
The art pavillon is a rounded wooden structure on stilts.
This independant shape does not create strict connections to any surroundings and therefore could be placed anywhere in or outside town, as required in the competition brief.
The pavillon is constructed of two pieces. One lifted from the ground by 2 Meters - the exhibition level and one underneath for workshops, lectures and so on.
The workshop-level on the ground is protected but not cut off from the surrounding.
The reflecting surfaces of stilts and curved ceiling are enhancing the strong connection to the direct environment.
The curved ceiling marks the position of the winding stairs and creates a special transition to the upper level: before you go up you have to bend down a bit.
Similar to the small entry of a Japanese teahouse one is smoothely pulled out of one‘s familiar environment.
As a counter part to the workshop-level, the exhibition-level is clompletely closed off on the sides, but entirely open to the top - the sky is the ceiling.
In that way one gets further extracted from the surrounding and in a metaphorical sense from everday life. The exhibited art is the only focus of attention.
The art is well protected in some kind of shadowbox, which is at the same time the main construction for the curved outer walls.
These ,shadowboxes‘ are like the floor made out of wood. The back is the wooden cladding you see from the outside.
The confinement to one material increases the focus to the pieces of art.
The project was a collaboration with Jeong-Hoon Kim.
