Dream Pavilion

Located in the natural environment of the Museum Gardens, the pavilion is conceived as an ethereal space in harmony with its surrounding environment. This conceptual design reveals its fluid and ever-changing aspect as visitors approach from all directions. Permeable like a cloud, the interior space aims at absorbing visitors and creating new sensorial perceptions. The boundaries between the inside and the outside are blurred. The floors are seamlessly blend into the walls and the roof, challenging spatial dimensions.

The form of the pavilion is based on a simple geometric manipulation of the Leminiscate, the mathematical symbol for Infinity. The project consists of a continuous aluminum profile that follows a three-dimensional path in the space and is reinforced by PVC membranes creating a rigid and self-supporting lightweight structure measuring 4m high and 50 sqm in area. The pavilion elements have been designed using precise digital tools to be manufactured in workshops, then be easily transported and assembled on site.
