About Bamboo Pavilion Toilet Renovation Primary Function: Pampublikong Banyo
Book Text: Ang Bamboo Pavilion ay isang pampublikong banyo sa Taipa Grande Hill Park sa Macau, na nilikha sa pamamagitan ng renobasyon ng isang saradong pasilidad. Ang bagong gusali ay muling ginagamit ang umiiral na istruktura at pundasyon, kaya nananatiling hindi nagbabago ang lawak nito. Ang facade ay muling binibigyang-kahulugan ang bamboo scaffolding na matagal nang ginagamit sa Macau. Daan-daang puting tubong aluminyo ang nakahalili sa paligid ng gusali upang bumuo ng isang translucent na shell. Ang liwanag ng araw ay dumadaan sa shell papunta sa loob, samantalang ang mga napanatiling skylight at ang mga customized na nakahilig na bintana na may integradong mga bukasan ay nagpapabuti sa cross ventilation. Natapos ang renobasyon sa loob ng dalawang buwan.

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.
