Architecture pavilion

The main intent of public space is to democratically guarantee a free and accessible place to gather, to foster social interaction, to provide areas to rest and contemplate, and to guarantee that us as individuals have a place to freely express ourselves. This cosmos of natural and built elements becomes the foundation for building community and human bonds within our cities. R8 Visuals As the oldest park in Mexico City, Alameda Central stands as both a symbolic space and historical witness of cultural diversity, a testament to times of prosperity but also those of decline, much like Diego Rivera portrayed in his mural “Dream of a Sunday Afternoon in the Alameda Central”. Following the proportions and guiding lines of the... More

Spazio Sensoriale is a Spatial Work by Fausto Ferrara, realized in Hudson, New York, for the Art OMI Foundation. The Work was conceived as an architectural prototype and inhabitable sculpture, operating at the threshold between architecture, environmental art and perception. It is not a pavilion conceived as an autonomous object, but a spatial device in which body, light, water, matter and movement construct the experience. Franco Purini describes Spazio Sensoriale as an “inhabitable sculpture” and a “space-situation,” emphasizing how architecture is taken beyond simple function to become pure tectonic articulation and a perceptual field. The project is structured through sequences of compression and expansion, re... More

A silent vessel on water, cut from light and myth, inviting visitors to step beyond the everyday and enter the realm of possibility. Panos Nikolaidis Panos Nikolaidis Conceived as a contemporary fairytale, this landmark proposal seeks to offer East England more than a visual icon, it aspires to become a place of inner transformation. Rising from the water like a sculpted dream, the structure is both monumental and elusive, a shard of imagination rendered in pure form. Visitors do not merely observe it; they inhabit it. Through its shifting perspectives, veiled light, and mirrored reflections, it awakens a sense of wonder often forgotten in daily life. Panos Nikolaidis Rather than display technology, it dissolves it, allowin... More

Wetlands are a gift from nature to humanity, and living in harmony with nature is the best way humans can repay nature. Art installations in wetlands should not only entertain people but also evoke a profound appreciation of the beauty of nature. WAG Architects At the tail end of the summer of 2023, WAG Architects was invited to participate in the Longjiang Wetland Art Festival and designed a series of art installations that align with the wetland theme for the festival. Four art installations were set up in the picturesque Hulan Wetland. We aimed to use familiar elements and objects as a starting point to attempt to redefine the interaction between humans and nature in creative ways. "The Dancing Stone Forest" is one of these install... More

The genesis of the project arose from a fascination with the geometry of the spiral. A shape that has inspired humanity for centuries, it appears in nature at all scales: from protein molecules to the structure of galaxies. Fernando Gerra In what way does this geometry represent Polishness for us and its inherent spirit of innovation? The borders of Poland’s territory do not hinder innovative ideas from spreading far and wide, influencing distant regions, and allowing knowledge gained abroad to return to the gravitational centre of our nation. These invisible but significant forces for the country’s development are expressed in the dynamic form of spiral walls, with the concert hall at its core. Fernando Gerra Formal... More

The idea stemmed from the urgent need to highlight the hidden water footprint in architecture. Inspired by the concept of 'virtual water'—the water embedded in materials and construction, we developed an immersive installation to make this invisible presence visible. The concept was born from the dialogue between architecture and environmental science, led by Benedetta Tagliabue and Jampel Dell’Angelo, blending research, design, and sensory experience into a critical spatial narrative. Lluc Miralles Lluc Miralles Set within the historic Arsenale of Venice, the installation enters into a respectful yet provocative dialogue with its context. Rather than altering the site, it floats within it lightweight, ephemeral, and... More

The Ewen Park Outdoor Learning Centre delivers a vibrant place for meeting, promotion of place, and environmental awareness. Brett Boardman The brief required a simple yet dynamic shelter to provide the community  with a flexible use outdoor learning centre. Brett Boardman Referenced in the design is an appreciation of the local history, hydrology, and ecology of the site; from strategic site planning initiatives through to the design details. Country-centred design principles underpin the project. Brett Boardman The Outdoor Learning Centre is expressed as a pavilion with expansive roof that provides shelter to the central gathering space, as well as providing peripheral shade. The playful edges of both the shelter a... More

At the highest point of the city, a bird lands after a long flight; among hills and rocks, it seeks to observe the great metropolis in awe… A pavilion that invites contemplation and discovery from within, framing unique views and spaces that can only be appreciated from great heights. A place to pause and delight in the urban landscape, a unique formal element where light, structure, and geometry merge: "A temporary space for prolonged memory." © Eletres Studio Ideal Territory Located in the city of Guayaquil, the pavilion functions as an experimental observatory of the city. Its location at the highest point of the campus of the Catholic University of Santiago de Guayaquil, more than 70 meters above sea level, positions... More

The climate crisis is a maze of choices—complex, urgent, and deeply personal. Every decision we make, no matter how small, contributes to the trajectory of our planet. Climaze explores this reality, turning the abstract challenges of sustainability into a tangible, navigable experience. It reminds us that change begins with the individual, yet its impact can reverberate globally. Imperfct Crafted entirely from recycled plastic, this labyrinth transforms Bryant Park into a living conversation about the choices shaping our planet’s future. Divided into twelve distinct sectors, the maze represents the critical domains where sustainability and human decisions intersect—energy, water, food, fashion, waste, transportation,... More

The pavilion project originated from the client's premise: it needs to look like it has always been there. The area delimited for intervention is located in the garden of a plot of land with an existing house whose plasticity and materiality recall the Brazilian modernist movement. The exposed concrete structure of the roof becomes the shelter for the activities inside, the exposed ceramic brick fences, the wooden structural elements and the glass frames provide visual permeability and incorporate the garden landscape into the architecture. Júlia Tótoli Júlia Tótoli The design process consisted of searching for the essence of the pre-existing house, maintaining the gene of materiality that is expr... More

This project  transcends the limits of simple physical construction. It is a philosophical manifestation that seeks to establish a harmonious dialogue between humans, nature, and architecture. The central idea of this project is the pursuit of essence, purity of elements, and simplicity. Fernando Guerra - FG+SG Fernando Guerra - FG+SG Fernando Guerra - FG+SG Fernando Guerra - FG+SG The composition of pure volumes reveals a kind of modernist and minimalist "quotation," where each element has a precise purpose and contributes to the beauty and functionality of the space. The relationship with the surroundings and the garden is essential to this proposal, as it aims to integrate humans with the natural environment, cr... More

Nestled within the verdant expanse of the Archstoyanie Land Art Festival, the Resonance Pavilion by BQ Studio stood as a powerful statement on the potential of reclaimed materials and the impact of sustainable design. Conceived during a time when the construction industry generates waste equivalent to 226 Great Pyramids of Giza annually, this pavilion redefines how we approach architectural innovation. Caption Caption Constructed entirely from repurposed materials—scaffolding, insulation, and reclaimed pipes—Resonance challenges the conventional view of waste, transforming discarded elements into a striking architectural centerpiece.
