The centerpiece of Solar One’s Citysol festival this past June, Solar Pavilion 3 continues to receive accolades. The temporary structure, designed and constructed by Brooklyn-based Situ Studio, is featured in the Centerfold section of Interior Design magazine’s September issue. Assembled from slotted strips of plywood, the pavilion provided multiple uses during the course of the festival as a lecture/presentation space, bar, and shade/rest area for festival-goers. Like Situ’s previous pavilions for Citysol, this year’s incorporated organic, flowing forms that harmonized with the curvilinear pathways of Stuyvesant Cove Park and captured the general spirit of sustainability that is at the festival’s core. As always, all materials used to make Solar Pavilion 3 were reused or recycled.
Congratulations to our partners at Situ Studio for this deserved recognition. We can’t wait to see what they come up with next year…
