About Bamboo Pavilion Toilet Renovation Fungsi Utama: Toilet Umum

Bamboo Pavilion adalah toilet umum di Taipa Grande Hill Park di Makau, yang diciptakan melalui renovasi sebuah fasilitas tertutup. Bangunan baru ini menggunakan kembali struktur dan fondasi yang ada, sehingga luas lahannya tetap tidak berubah. Fasadnya menafsirkan ulang perancah bambu yang telah lama digunakan di Makau. Ratusan tabung aluminium putih disusun secara berselang-seling di sekeliling bangunan untuk membentuk cangkang tembus cahaya. Cahaya matahari melewati cangkang tersebut ke bagian interior, sementara skylight yang dipertahankan dan jendela miring yang dibuat khusus dengan bukaan terintegrasi meningkatkan ventilasi silang. Renovasi ini rampung dalam waktu dua bulan.

Behind the Design

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.

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.
