The most beautiful and busiest part of the Uni-versity Park campus, the North Entrance requires a space, slightly off the fast paced path, to take advantage of the pictur-esque views, providing a meeting, and contem-plative opportunity.

The pavilion directs pe-destrian traffic away from the tired routes, en-couraging the enjoyment of unnoticed views framed by the structure. Self-interpreted usage of the space indulges the imagination.

Discarded oak timber, re-cycled and reclaimed, brings its strength and his-tory to this repetitive and simple structure. Finished naturally, the structure evolves with weather and time. Simple timber dowl-ing joints allow honest as-sembly and dis-assembly.

Modular repetition provides vast op-portunity for usage and configuration. Multiple assembly is assisted by en-graved components. Each piece can be transported individually.

We feel our vision meets all of our objectives regarding the various sites and their specific needs. The form encompasses the requirement for shelter and as a resting point. Theaesthetic quality of both the form and the use of pallets comes about as a result ofthe juxtaposition between the organic form and the geometric pallets.

The pallets are an appropriate building material since they promote sustainability anda sense of pride in renewal. They are also flexible in terms of transportation and constuction.

FormWe explored organic form throught the shape of dry leaves,particually in the way they enclose space by delecattely sitting on the ground. From this our ideas were translated into 3d CAD modles through the use of Rhino

Placing the sanctuary at a converging point of many student paths catalyzes social interaction whilst offering some of the most extensive views in the University. Sheltered against the elements by the surrounding evergreens the illuminated structure is visible from both the entrance and the road with seasonal landscape variation from the deciduous flora.

Recycled pallets mass-produced cheaply by local companies allows ease of construction and collaborative manufacturing..

Each module is constructed from a

wooden frame and clad in wire mesh

The Modules are then filled with disused plastic bags

This is a statement to remind against the danger of creating something

that one day will out live its use, to come to the end of it’s life cycle

The modules are connected with ties. This explicit joint encourages the playful thought of rearranging the structure for a new function

The majority of modules will form outdoor seating

At the entrance of the Carpark a yearly competition will be

held to design a sculpture to put the school on the

map

Site 3 - Spreading the word of sustainability,

Tongue and groove and the built environment

Site 2 - The modules connect the audience to the stage

while showing visitors the school is

conscious of sustainability

Site 1 - The pavilion is a message that sustainability is not just

environmentally friendly materials - but also clever design.

In our society too many things are built for one single function. When

that function is no longer needed, they become obsolete. If they were able to

adapt they could continue to serve us, rather than contribute to yet another

landfill.

Plastic carrier bags are a prime example of one of these designs.

Encasing them in cages serves as a reminder to think of the long term

Technical drawings

Tongue and Groove modules advertise the Architectural society - a not very well know aspect of the department

The modules are not a completely snug fit. This allows for dynamic lighting across all designs, as well as allowing for small construction errors

Although the constructions can appear to be very complicated, due to only being a repetition of 2 modules they will be quick and easy to construct, possible providing design workshops for 1st year students

The central pavilion creates a space of 3m x 3m. This will be a sanctuary within Ecobuild, compiled of smooth walls in contrast to the jagged outside walls representing the chaotic environment around

The structure appears to fall into it’s environment. Due to ergonomic considerations this provides seamless seating for many people

Our pavilion is located approximately mid-way between the two departments: as such, its purpose of being stop-off point is served well. The site is positioned on a route which is simple and direct. It follows the main roads and main paths, achieving directness and safety. The structure essentially involves a wooden frame which will be covered by (acrylic canvas), and the beams of wood will be joined through means of (steel socket joints). Our initial concept was to incorporate engineering details in our architecture, tying together the department with the new faculty. The structure will constitute three main walls which will overlap each other to form a spiral-like shape: the overlapping of the walls will produce the three openings as a natural consequence. The spiral shape, and thus circularity, alludes to the form of the trees and the nearby roundabout. Furthermore the spiral form evokes a sense of motion, and this evocation of motion is effective in two main ways: it alludes to the idea of mechanisation and consequently the linking of architecture with the engineering department; it also hopes to encourage movement through – the spiral form would aim to induce a notion of gravitation towards the pavilion and consequential transience through and out the other side of the pavilion – notably, this is in association with the notion of the pavilion only intending, in most situations, to be a stop-off point and information hub. The interior of the structure features essentially a hexagonal floor plan with a central pole which serves a purpose structurally however also aesthetically. Wooden steps of different levels surround the pole: these can be used mostly as seats. For the show, one of the walls is repositioned in between the other two walls, so the steps can then be used as a stage. The connections of the structure make it possible for this adaptation to occur: a hoop at the top of the canvases can rotate around a central spike at the top of the pole. Information and other features which satisfy the function criteria of the pavilion will hang from high tension, invisible, cables which will be linked between the frames – thus once someone is drawn into the centre of the pavilion, one will be able to recognise the purpose of the pavilion by viewing the interior of the walls. The pavilion is easy to transport – the relatively light weight of the canvas can be unattached and then the wooden beams can be unscrewed from the steel joints. The components can then be transported and then reassembled in the opposite way.

Concept Image: “Matter tells space how to curve, and space tells matter how to move.” - John Wheeler. The Galaxy’s Milky way is said to be permeated by a uniformed, exhaustive magnetic field. It’s helical appearance contains three fundamental elements which consist of its halo, disk (spiral arms) and nucleus.The magnetic field of the milky way flows in lieu with the galactic plane, and acts on particles, causing their rotational axes to line up parallel to the field, bending particle paths to designated directions and trapping cosmic rays.

The internal spaces within the construct offer a variety of environments to suit various functions. In the first location, at Ecobuild, where the pavilion will be used for visitors to sit and relax during their visit to the exhibition, the internal space offers a partially enclosed area to retreat from the activity outside. The central podiums act as seating for those wishing to rest. The walls can also perform as information boards about the surrounding exhibits. Whilst the structure is being utilised as a stage, the more open nature of the structure allows for the audience in front to have clear unobstructed views of the presenter and award winners. The host stands on the central podium to be visible to the spectators. The interior shape helps to project the presenter’s voice towards the crowd. Finally at the final location, the interior again acts as a partially enclosed shelter, to protect from the elements, but sight is not detrimentally hindered. The spaces for posters will be used to display student information and serve well as an information point and shelter. The joints on the interior are purposefully exposed to display the engineering qualities and nature of the built environment.

I n te r na l Render s

The scheme aims to utilise as few different materials as possible for simpler and quicker construction. The framework for the structure is composed of reclaimed wood, oak beams specifically. There is a possibility that reclaimed wood could be used for the central podium mainly and new wood for the structure to ensure structural integrity and also as a means to adhere to financial restraints. Reclaimed materials are not only more eco-friendly and sustainable, but they also provide a greater sense of character. The outer skin is a PVC canvas which is stretched across the framework to form a semi-translucent layer for shelter but also allowing light to emit through it creating a lighter atmosphere. The joints are formed from steel tubing, welded together to our specifications. The costing has been evaluated by looking at various suppliers of such materials and workmanship. The green oak b e a m s a r e a v a i l a b l e f r o m £ 1 5 f o r 100X100X2400mm beams, and the canvas can be bought for £16.50 for a 1x1.5m sheet from one supplier in particular that we researched. The materials and workmanship for the joints vary from £60 - £100 in relation to the complexity of the joint.

The walls of the structure are aligned vertically to allow space for the hanging of posters and the mounting of flat screen televisions in its respective locations. The seating area is partially covered to provide shade for users, as well as offering natural light and natural ventilation in the space.

Public Interaction & Circulation

The site was chosen because it is the central access hub for students and sta� between the built environment and engineering departments. Shallow hills surrounding the site provide landscape views. The existing trees help to screen the pavilion from some of the noise from passing tra�c. Whilst the brief was to create a shelter for passing students, it was apparent after research that students and sta� were concerned with getting to their destinations. The pavilion would therefore most likely be used as a temporary rest stop by visitors who are walking through the university park campus for leisure. As part of our proposal and longer term plan the cocoon pavilion will act as the central stage of an amphitheatre for stage events.

Proposed Sites

TectonicsTo create an organic structure we fabricated 1:20 scaled 600mm length units and wove them together to create a �exible cloth which forms is then hardened into a �xed cocoon shape. The 600mm units are at an identi�able human scale which makes the whole structure more relatable.

The wood is sourced from sustainable hardwoods in Scotland alternatively materials for the basic unit could be made from disused wooden pallets. The metal threaded bar, dog toothed washers, and hexagonal nuts are zinc plated steel. A coating of wood varnish will protect the wood from the elements.

Shown opposite are structural sections outlining the basic construction for the cocoon. Included also is a CAD render of the structural make up. This was then put into practice on a 1:1 scale using the materials outlined above. The model was successful and indicates a good tectonic joint for the pavilion.

The central section is the more intimate area and comprises of a double layer of wooden struc-ture with a canopy covering a beautiful central opening.

This end is a tapered structure mimicking the end of a cocoon and creates an inviting entrance for those approaching the site from student halls and the department of built environ-ment

SiteThe  routes  between  Architecture  and  Engineering  vary  in  time  efficiency,  safety  and  experience.  The  most  popular  being  the  most  time  efficient  which  also  happens  to  have  a  beautiful  scenic  journey  (marked  in  red  on  the  map).  The  location  of  the  pavilion  is  very  accessible  as  it  is  approximately  half  way  between  Architecture  and  Engineering  and  is  at  the  crossroads  of  where  students  enter  the  University.  The  site  is  sloped  making  it  easily  visible  from  the  surrounding  areas  and  also  has  fantastic  views  of  the  landscape.  The  location  allows  us  to  form  a  physical  and  figurative  connection  between  these  three  ‘elements’.

MATERIALITY

PLASTIC  BAGSWe  will  be  sourcing  non  bio-­degradable  single  use  carrier  bags  as  these  will  last  for  the  same  time  as  the  structure  if  not  longer.  The  bags  will  be  used  in  a  number  of  ways,  for  seating,  rubbish  disposal  and  the  actual  canopy  material.  The  bags  will  be  plaited  together  to  get  a  long  rope  and  for  added  strength.  We  have  decided  to  use  plastic  bags  over  rope  as  we  are  recycling  the  resource  and  they  are  also  much  cheaper  than  the  alternative.

TIMBERWe  will  be  using  timber  for  the  platform,  as  it  can  be  recycled  and  reused  from  other  structures,  is  very  workable  and  is  cheap.  Because  of  its  strength  under  compression,  it  is  suitable  to  support  the  main  structure.

BAMBOOBamboo  will  be  used  in  the  main  structure  and  has  been  chosen  for  its  renewability,  durability,  rigidity,  versatility  and  its  weight.  Bamboo  is  a  very  easily  replaced  material  as  it  is  one  of  the  fastest  growing  plants  in  the  world,  it  is  known  to  grow  up  to  100cm  in    a  24hr  period.  However,  one  issue  we  have  had  to  overcome  is  the  irregularity  of  the  diameter  of  bamboo,  meaning  we  will  have  to  make  adjustments  to  cater  for  this.

STEELWe  chose  steel  for  the  connections  due  to  its  strength,  durability  and  recyclability.  As  we  only  have  four  different  triangles  being  used  throughout  the  structure  then  a  lot  of  the  connections  are  going  to  be  the  same,  meaning  it  is  easier  and  cheaper  to  manufacture  them.  

HDPEWe  have  chosen  to  use  HDPE  (high  density  polyethylene)  for  the  connection  between  the  main  structure  and  the  bin  as  this  is  much  more  lightweight  than  steel  connections.  HDPE  is  a  recyclable  plastic  and  is  fairly  easy  to  mould  into  the  correct  jointing  shape  and  so  is  suitable  for  this  use.  

A  triangular  relation  between:  Architecture,  Engineering,  The  University.

Seen  from  a  plan-­view  these  points  on  campus  construct  a  triangle.  We  designed  interweaved  cables  creating  a  curved  surface  connecting  two  triangular  frames  to  express  the  organic  creativity  of  Architecture  combined  with  the  angular  reality  of  Engineering.

The  canopy  design  modules  allow  for  seating  which  echos  the  structure  above  creating  a  relaxing  chill  out  zone  to  escape  the  hustle  and  bustle  of  Ecobuild.

The  main  principle  of  the  end  site  is  to  have  a  pavilion  that  connects  the  Architecture  and  Engineering  departments.  When  choosing  our  site,  we  realised  many  people  coming  from  different  directions  (mainly  the  North  entrance)  pass,  not  only  those  with  the  Architecture  or  Engineering  department  as  a  destination.  We  wanted  our  pavilion  to  not  only  be  a  mediation  point  between  Architecture  and  Engineering,  but  also  to  include  our  unintentional  visitors.  This  invitation  is  emphasized  by  an  expressive  main  entrance  that  is  used  as  the  stage  front  for  the  final  year  exhibition.

The timber �oor structure is made up of height adjustable modular steps, with ease of transport, production and cost e�ectiveness considered. Below the �oor layer is a framing system, which supports the poles and �xes them in place. This is a metal structure that is braced for strength with diagonals, each section a trough that the poles are folded into when dissembled, making transportability of the structure manageable. The timber �oor panels hide this structure. The recycling units are built into the sides of one section of the seating, partially beneath these panels. They are placed at the most easily accessible points from each entrance and area, and can be removed to be easily cleaned and emptied.The roof structure is dynamic, a key element in the aesthetics of the design. The support of the roof is provided by the timber poles and steel cable which is attached to the fabric and runs down into the metal rungs below the �oor, linking each corner to its opposite pole, creating more strength and keeping the form simplistic and elegant. The roof is made out of a freeform material, durable and water resistant, combining aestheticism and functionality- when the central poles are removed it retracts to its original shape. Its surface also encourages water drainage to the lowest points preventing pooling in the canopy.

The focus of the design is based on a metamorphic structure with a ‘changing skin’ – the ability to change and adapt. These elements developed into a transitional tensile structure, following a faintly amphitheatre-like formation with the structure altering through three states of change. The idea is to create internal spaces entirely di�erent to those assumed from the external form with the external skin remaining the same and the �ux being within the internal space of the structure. The structure assumes its �rst state at Ecobuild. Here it is a shelter, to harbour people, forming an open space that welcomes the public with a separate division of space located at the back of the structure for re�ection and retreat. The tensile canopy extends down to the �oor with an adjustable separate central skin creating this more sheltered, intimate area as well as a surface for projection of information, videos and light shows.The second state is the projection of the stage for its use at the Architectural show, the elements of the roof structure are mirrored in the formation of the �ooring emphasising the projected elements and highlighting the stage. This structure becomes more open when the inner canopy is moved up to follow the lines of the external skin.The �nal permanent state acts as a point for information collection and rest, a structure that becomes part of a journey and that leads people within. The division of areas used within the �rst state provides elements of re�ection and rest with information projected and printed onto the underside of the canopy.The orientation of the structure is key within the de�nitive site, with the convergence of points at the roundabout echoed through the entrances within the structure, allowing key routes of vision towards the road and the engineering and architecture departments. The structure is therefore safely accessible from every key approach located near the path and zebra crossing.

The total area of cut timber required to build the structure is ~83.6m². Since the beams are being

cut from plywood sheets (2440x1220x18mm), each component of the beam has been designed to �t on

one of these sheets, i.e: no larger than the dimensions of the plywood sheet – minimizing waste.

If one of the veranda bolts is left in the beam at each of the joints, it will allow the entire thing to be packed as a compact unit; making it easier to trans-port and assemble.

- The radius of the arc of each of the

segmented benches is synonymous throughout; thus, enabling them to �t together and

form one continuous surface- the stage for the End of Year Show. - Staging can be positioned underneath the open arches,

while the enclosed space can be used to seat the guest speakers.

The central structure is

hinged, so that it can

be unfolded into a single ”trunk-like” stand alone unit;

minimising the need for surplus labour. Veranda bolts �x the

structure together at all the �nger joints. Lycra is fed through hooks

and tensioned to form the cover

thus preventing any damage to the fabric.

The Dark Reaction

In day-to-day life, excessive pollution and chemtrails cause mutations in the carbon cycle.

What if the carbon cycle had a mind of it’s own? What if it chose to mutate and keep the oxygen which we find so pre-cious?

The pavillion looks at how that would disturb humans, it is The pavillion looks at how that would disturb humans, it is based on the cross section of the capillaries of a lung, taking in far too much carbon and not enough oxygen. It begins organi-cally and structured, and ends full and clogged up. The pro-gression can be seen moving from a regular shade into an irregular and mutated pattern that contorts the light.

The pavilion would be made up of three structures, which develop independently and can form many compositions, suited specifically to each site’s demands.

The material of choice is plywood, it can be easily lasercut and put together, packing up small but remaining strong in struc-ture. The shading device is made entirely from recycled plastic bottles, free of charge. The total expenditure for solelymaterials is estimated at <£300,

The exposed natures of the site provides a visual advantage which enhances safety and aesthet ics

A bias towards architecture ut i l ises the ini t ia l convergence of the most heavi ly used routes

No Single route is favoured to increase t ime efficiency between the 2 departments, al lowing personal/seasonal circumstances to dictate which route is fastest.

Spatial Concept

The pavi l ion highl ights the connect ion of the two departments: Architecture and Engineering. In

many ways these discipl ines conf l ict whi le in others they are integrated

By use of cubes, these ideas can be portrayed to show confliction and integration

The or ientat ion of the desire l ine connects the 2 department, and so their relationship is def ined.

FrameworkThe aluminium frame work can be assembled from individual identical frames containing the prestressed wire grid. This flat packing effect is suitable of transport and storage, as well as quick assembly.

Tensile StructureThis provides the main sheltering element of the pavilion as well as adding a dramatic form within the constraints of the grid.

Our design encompasses modular and prefabricated construction to enable efficient and simple construction, which can be assembled repeatedly without degeneration of structural integrity.

- Therefore the materials are hard wearing lightweight - Jointing is expressive and simple with the ability of deconstruction (eg. bolted joints)

The “Venetian” Stage

We used the concept of a venetian blind within our stage design, creating an adaptable substructure.

Isometric Exploded Detail

Route: The chosen route goes through Cripps and down the hill to the engineering department. There are safe stairs and a well used route with many people around. It cuts in a straight line, so reduces time. Its quite a varied route taking in many environments

Location: Our location is on the corner of the road leading into the engineering areas, it is visible from the main road and is on the route from many places on campus. Our site is positioned tactically to interact with a vast amount of people Materials: Our materials are

derived from a rubber tree. Rubber is made by harvesting and solidifying the sap which flows through the tree. So essentially the rubber tree contains liquid rubber. Rubber is a stis a strong waterproof and very flexible material, perfect for coating our structure in. Plywood has a high strength to weight ratio and easy to manufacture and work with.

Spatial Concept: We chose to create a semi-enclosed space where there is still openness for people to see and walk through, but also shelter to allow people to stop and dwell. Our design resembles a trtree, branching out and providing a canopy.

Structural concept: Our structural concept simply uses repetitive elements which are layered together to create strength, with poles holding the layeholding the layers apart. Arms branch of and support the main structure, giving stability.

Constructive concept: As our structure is made from singular elements they are easily cutout as there are only a few type of elements.They are simply stosimply stored and transported and easy to assemble and take apart on site

To add a sense of enclosure to our structure a rubber mesh will be weaved throughout the timber construction, construction, and will provide some shelter from the wind and rain.
