Cohesion

2024

Cohesion is the attractive force between identical molecules.  This was the inspiration for our pavilion which is comprised of 162 concentric circles. They dynamically expand and contract, culminating in three nested spheres ascending towards an enchanting oculus.

Positioned centrally within the square, our installation serves as a focal point, drawing people to gather both around and within its embrace. Seamlessly blending with the surrounding greenery, it becomes a natural extension of the lush surroundings. Step through its inviting double doors to discover encircling seating, offering a versatile space for events, performances, or quiet contemplation amidst the play of light and shadow. As night descends, our pavilion transforms into a radiant beacon, casting a luminous glow across the square.

Embedded within our design ethos is a commitment to sustainability and circularity. Crafted with modularity in mind, our structure facilitates easy disassembly, paving the way for the materials' rebirth as a series of furniture pieces. This conscious life-cycle approach ensures that our installation resonates far beyond its existence as a pavilion, echoing the enduring principles of harmony and renewal.
