Visual Permeability Pavilion

The idea of this pavilion is to relax with friends and family, as one can sit, chat and walk on this pavilion.  Half of it is designed for the ones who would like to relax and are located in a private setting.  The other is for having a conversation between four people.

The idea of shape came from one continuous strip that wraps around itself.  The wood then touches the ground at very small regions, feeling as though it grows out from the ground.  Each area is sectioned in three sections and densities; the lower part having the most density is for walking on, the second are rising up is a bit lighter and serves as a backrest to form seating and the top parts serve as shading and this part has the least volume.

The material used is furniture/grade birch plywood.  What is great about birch wood is that it withstands rain and any other unusual weather conditions.  The process was made with various digital fabrication techniques, meaning using only digital design methods.
