Forest Edge Pavilion

This conceptual residential study is conceived as a low-impact pavilion set within dense vegetation, prioritising horizontality and visual restraint. A broad roof plane integrates solar collection while extending deep eaves to regulate heat gain and rainfall. Full-height glazing dissolves the boundary between interior and landscape, supporting passive ventilation and daylight-led living. The architecture is treated as a quiet insertion, shaped by climate, canopy, and ground cover rather than formal display.
