The chosen precedent is Moissi House designed by Adolf Loos built in 1923. Adolf loos conveyed interesting usage of stairs and spaces which implements circulation and comfort for a residential building. The roof top courtyard and the main outer stairwell creates a welcome gesture to the surroundings which also provide the notion that it can be a safe haven or "pavilion" where you can stop and rest.

Phase Two Submission

Phase 02 : Submission

Grasshopper Script Submission

Script 1 : Mobility

The pavilions was inspired by 'Slime Mold' an organism that makes some sort of network to find a source whether if it's food or a place to bath or amenities according to the brief. The structure creates some form of space where design choices can be made to place or install the facilities to the design.

Iteration 1

Iteration 2

Iteration 3

Script 2 : Emergence

In this script Grasshopper and Kangaroo was used to create and an emerging pavilion from the ground where it can be re-scaled to size and space provided for the description of the brief.

Iteration 1-3

Script 3 : Terminal Line

The terminal line inspiration came from Preston Scott Cohen's projects and the facades that was produced. In the script prisms apply the deign facade shape of the pavilion and an attractor to create different forms to suit the level of the site.
