West Coast Pavilion
Atelier Manferdini, 2006

The pavilion is a sandwich of undulating layers that diverge and coalesce around and through its volume. The surface of the skin, combined with the diamond-shaped structure, behaves like three dimensional lacework, creating a dynamic screening and filtering effect.
