Shadow Pavilion
Shadow Pavilion is a temporary experimental installation by Karl Daubmann (PLY Architecture) in collaboration with John Marshall (rootoftwo). The project is an extension from a graduate studio course at the University of Michigan. It utilizes computer-generated architectural forms inspired by organic models to design site-specific structures that maximize utility while minimizing material and waste. This botanical-inspired structure was designed for this overlook on the Sam Graham Trees Trail (UM Matthaei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum). It frames the vista for visitors while providing both shade and a visual destination that orients people to the view point.
Shadow Pavilion
Construction was assisted by graduate students Ngoc Thy Phan and Alex
Timmer with construction volunteers Craig Borum, Peggy Chong, Jen
Maigret, Jessica Mattson, Katie Santer, Dwight Song and Alex Watanabe.
This project was made possible by a Research-through-Making grant from
Taubman College at the University of Michigan and UM Matthaei Botanical
Gardens and Nichols Arboretum.
