Lake Gazebo / Bach Mühle Fuchs + After Apricots

Textual content description offered by the architects. For the Annecy Paysages 2021 exhibition, we had the chance to design a gazebo. A prism-shaped construction is perched on the sting of the lake of Annecy, on the southern fringe of the Parc Charles Bosson. One other folly, a gazebo, was added to the park. Impressed by conventional gazebos, the set up invitations guests to develop their notion of the Annecy panorama.
Gazebo (Gaze + -ebo: “I’ll see”) is greater than a pavilion, it’s an optical gadget. Its perforated surfaces interrupt the panorama and present the panorama as a pixelated picture. The cutouts present an uncommon view of the town, the lake, and the panorama. The sample of perforations within the papery metal partitions is derived from the solar’s orbit.
This site-specific set up can also be a photo voltaic statement instrument, indicating time by means of the rotation of shadows. The inside surfaces of the pavilion act as filters and projection surfaces at completely different occasions of the day.
Because the solar strikes throughout the sky and shines by means of the perforations, the house fills with an ever-changing sample of sunshine and shadow. Totally different levels of porosity reply to the depth of sunshine at any given time of day, adjusting the lighting situations to the temper and shade temperature from dawn to sundown.
