Overview
ROOF RAIN studio developed a 27-square-meter pavilion in Chiang Mai, Thailand, utilizing steel and timber as primary construction materials. The project's central design intent was to establish a structure specifically engineered for flood resilience.
Research Context
The pavilion's development emerged from a context of post-flood necessity. It was conceived to transform these requirements into a functional space.
Approach
The design approach by ROOF RAIN studio focused on creating a 27-square-meter structure. This involved the use of steel and timber in its construction. The foundational principle behind its design was flood resilience, intending to provide a dedicated space for activities such as cooking and gathering, which contributes to an improved state of preparedness.
Findings
The project resulted in the construction of a 27-square-meter steel and timber pavilion. Its location is specified as Chiang Mai. The structure was observed to be built for the purpose of flood resilience, serving as a venue for cooking and gathering, and contributing to enhanced preparedness in a post-flood scenario.
Why This Matters
The creation of this pavilion addresses practical post-flood needs by providing designated spaces for cooking and communal activities. Its design for flood resilience directly contributes to improved community preparedness.
