Stage for Everyone

ARC480F | Re-Integrating Design

The  current  state  of  world  has  caused  us  to  vision  a  living  space  that  will  never  be  quite  the  same.  The spread of COVID-19 made us think about re-designing the shape of a post-COVID world; we cannot continue designing  as  if  nothing  had  happened. The world is full of ‘unknowns’, and our understanding and experience about them will in-fluence architecture’s future. The rapid spread of COVID-19 opens our eyes towards complexities behind simplicity of our living environment. Inevitably, an increase understanding of ‘unknowns’ of  the  future  will  result  a  change  in  our  dai-ly  activities,  and  thus  for  which  architects  would have to explore new ideas and search for innovative solutions. While there are much more to learn about COVID-19,  a few  ideas  have  already  emerged  to  examine  flexibility,  an  ability  to  be  adapted  to  different functions and requirements, where prevention of future pandemics is key.  
 

This project considers the integration of complexity and flex-ibility in the design of a pavilion,  Co-vision  pavilion.  It  will  be  a  gathering  place  for  people  to  communicate,  coop-erate  and collaborate emphasizing the spirit of creation and innovation around what kind of future we want to build. The Co-vision pavilion could be temporary or permanent. It would host up to 50 people who will experience new  relationships,  enjoy  exhibitions,  performances,  and  a  series  of  lectures  while  meeting  public  health practices.
