creating a shifting visual relationship with its environment The design prioritizes an inward architectural experience that highlights the presence of water in the forest the pavilion is conceived as a space that collects and frames it This concept is expressed through a geometric configuration that defines a central void within a 5 x 5 x 5-meter virtual cube The inward-sloping roofs channel rainwater toward the center referencing historical precedents such as the Roman atrium and the traditional Diola dwellings of southern Senegal both of which incorporate rainwater collection as a fundamental spatial principle The pavilion functions as a contemplative structure activated by water without a utilitarian purpose beyond observation and experience all images by P + S Estudio de Arquitectura unless stated otherwise The material composition by P + S Estudio de Arquitectura is designed to enhance spatial perception through minimal elements The primary framework consists of pinewood allowing light to filter through while ensuring durability and weather resistance defines the pavilion’s interior and exterior surfaces The exterior linen is treated with a black protective coating while the interior retains its natural finish emphasizing the contrast between enclosure and interior space This layered material approach establishes a dialogue between varying textures and transparency Wood and linen reference the architectural and cultural identity of Normandy particularly the exposed timber-framed ‘colombage’ construction and the region’s linen production COMPLUVIUM integrates these materials to establish a connection between local building traditions and contemporary spatial experimentation reinforcing the relationship between architecture COMPLUVIUM by P + S Estudio de Arquitectura highlights Rouen’s climatic conditions through its design a geometric pavilion that contrasts with yet integrates into the natural forested surroundings | image by Linfeng Zhou the pavilion’s central void is defined by a 5 x 5 x 5-meter cubic configuration | image by Javier Callejas pinewood framework forms the structural base grounding the pavilion in natural materials fiberglass with resin acts as a waterproof yet translucent protective membrane linen and fiberglass skins create a semi-transparent envelope that changes with the light inward-sloping roofs direct rainwater to the center locally sourced linen fabric wraps the interior and exterior black-coated linen on the exterior contrasts with the untreated the pinewood structural framework stands on timber foundation piles minimal materials maximize the sensory and perceptual experience of the space inspired by Normandy’s ‘colombage’ timber-framed houses and materiality | image by Javier Callejas a reflection on architecture’s relationship with climate name: COMPLUVIUM.
