vayal team project
A structure
of bamboo and ropes from floor to roof.
We
followed a light construction technique, using only bamboo as a structural element.
Based
on the sun path we provided shade to our pavilion, we weaved the wall and the
roof Using sac bags and rope.
We
also provided a bench within our pavilion arising between the columns.
The
primary system of columns and beams Contained
the secondary system of shading and sitting area.
documents and planing guidelines
Built up area: 15 sq.m
Orientation on site: SE
Examination of the sun path was made in order to plan a shaded structure.
The roof measurements and a west side wall were designed according to the examination.
Construction process
Joints & details
The main focus was the light construction that required detailed planning in order to achieve a reliable bamboo foundation.
All along its core, the bamboo grows thinner.
Due to that, we used tow conjoined bamboos in order to create 5 and 5.6 meter long beams with approximately the same diameter on both ends alongside the bamboo.

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.
Sun path checks:

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
