The Cloud, London

Program: Pavillion, Urban Intrvention

Location: Barbican Centre, London, UK

Architectural Team: John Kanakas, Sungbum Hung

Period: 2015

The Cloud is a proposal for a pavillion designed for Barbican Centre, made out of a single wooden interlocking component of varying scales, which allows for diffrent types of socialisation. The pavillion constitutes a place for socialisation or solitude, since through its organisation, it allows for more intimate to more social sating areas. The canopy components vary in aperture and depth to control the sunlight and allow different amount of light to reach the various seating areas under. The components overall, while varying in in scale, they transform from seats and tables to columns and canopy.
