The pavilion design was influenced by the local climate and sun path. It provides a shaded environment for the majority of the day, throughout the year by considering the path of the sun and constructing an active filtering.   


The pavilion is located on the center-northern plot of the complex. The southern side of the plot is the sunniest most of the day and faces the center. This side was left open allowing an unobstructed connection to the other pavilions. The sun is partially blocked by the roof, the eastern and the western walls.



Sun path checks:











Bamboo beam and brick column joint


The bamboo used to construct the walls was placed vertical to block the sun. In the western wall the bamboo is more dense in consideration of the position of the sun and the time of day that the pavilion is occupied


The roof is designed as an separated element detached from the main structure and in resonance with the existing environment







The platform is raised 40 cm above the ground offering protection from the Monsoon flood and creating an exterior sitting area
