Pavilion No 4

The need for additional space for a teenager/young adult has been the purpose for this addition to an existing pavilion style house. The original residence is designed as a series of three pavilions linked together with courtyards containing water features and the latest pavilion continues this theme in a contemporary manner.

Pavilion No 4 is positioned within the garden and the design philosophy is centered around the indoor and outdoor space being one and incorporating ecologically sustainable principles.

The reverse brick veneer wall of the western boundary visually anchors the glazed walls of the addition within the garden. In addition, this wall provides acoustic treatment against the adjoining train-line and solar protection of the western side of the building.

The end result is the formation of a room within the garden.
