About Bamboo Pavilion Toilet Renovation Seòmar-ionnlaid Poblach

'S e seòmar-ionnlaid poblach ann am Pàirc Cnoc Taipa Grande ann am Macau a th' anns a' Phàilliun Bhambù, a chaidh a chruthachadh tro ath-nuadhachadh air goireas dùinte. Bidh an togalach ùr a' cleachdadh a-rithist an structair agus a' bhunait a th' ann mar-thà, agus mar sin tha an lorg-chas gun atharrachadh. Bidh an aghaidh ag ath-mhìneachadh na sgafaldaidh bhambù a chaidh a chleachdadh o chionn fhada ann am Macau. Tha ceudan de phìoban alùmanaim geala air an sgapadh timcheall an togalaich gus slige leth-shoilleir a chruthachadh. Bidh solas an latha a' dol tron t-slige a-steach don taobh a-staigh, agus bidh na fàrleusan a chaidh a ghlèidheadh agus na h-uinneagan claona a chaidh a dhèanamh a rèir tomhais le fosglaidhean fillte a' leasachadh na h-èadhrachd tarsainn. Chaidh an t-ath-nuadhachadh a chrìochnachadh ann an dà mhìos.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Unique Properties: Bamboo Pavilion is a public renovation project that we designed to subvert the perception of a typical public bathroom in Macau, which is dirty, wet and smelly. The original facility was an enclosed building setting apart from the natural surroundings. The Bamboo Pavilion, a new design, is built on existing structure and foundation. By reorganizing the plan, by redesigning the façade and by reintroducing sustainable principles, the broken link between culture, human and nature are reconnected.
Tags: public toilet, public, architecture, renovation, macau
Design Challenge: The challenge is to increase its functionality and to enhance its appearance while maintaining size of its footprint.
Inspiration: Façade of the Bamboo Pavilion is a re-intrepretation of bamboo scaffolding that Macau industry have used since. Hundreds of white aluminum tubes are arranged in a staggered manner surround the structure forming a translucent shell blends in with nature. Bathroom space is turned inside out. Light rays shine through the façade to the interior; daylight and ventilation are enhanced by preserving the skylights and by tailor made slanted windows that integrated openings to enhance cross ventilation.
Project Duration: The project is located at the highest point of the Taipa Grande Hill Park, Macau. This renovation project is completed within 2 months.
