A space of silence within the big city, where you can find isolation in the chaos

The search for silence, for meditation, is not an easy thing, so it must be delicate to reach the space to do it, hidden among nature, whose entrance is barely visible through a dark crack.

As soon as you enter, this crack flows until it ends up in a larger space, where you begin to feel freedom and the need to move towards one of the platforms.

If you remain silent for a while, there will be a moment when you feel suspended, off-stage, everything belongs to you, silence envelops everything, the atmosphere becomes part of it.

The pavilion is characterized by a curvilinear form, renouncing the artificial impression of corners; in the main volume there are platforms placed at different levels, with different views, lights and shadows. These platforms generate a 'path' between the points of proximity between them, while the elevation changes generate a 'sensitive privacy' like the Japanese SAKUTEKI. The bamboo cover seeks the duality of light perceptions.
