Goo Cloud Pavillion

Built Project
Project year: 2023
Location: Columbia University Campus
Critic: Laurie Hawkinson & Galia Solomonoff

The Pavilion provide an oasis of calm for students and visitors of the University campus during the rush of the end of the semester. Solar panels are installed on each pavilion’s canopy to harvest daylight for powering mobile device charging stations and embedded LED lighting systems that vibrantly glow at night.
During the process, We explored recycled material options for the pavilions’ skin, as well as research into photovoltaic (PV) technologies, which were used to generate power for the embedded lighting system. The Pavillion was built within the regulations of the New York State building codes and Columbia University regulations.
