An installation in the newest location of Vancouver Circus School, the project was conceived as backdrop to the spectacular circus events. The use of standard dimensional lumber forms a playful take on the archetypal “circus tent” that houses the Circus’ office function. A long linear line of plywood makes up an array of seating and cubby storage, and a playground slide marks the entrance to the Circus School for kids only. The interior architecture creates a place to work, a place to play and a place to watch the fanciful acrobatics. “Stick Forest” forms a guardrail behind the seating area, while evoking the landscape art installation beyond. A field of yellow juggling balls fills the walls of the circus office tent, mimicking the sense of play and wonder inherent in the School itself.
